I should've known that you would wear me thin
A sore addiction I've been holding within
The falling highs and the surging lows
I'm in deeper than I've ever been
I've fallen silent, I've lost my way
I want to rise but I am caught in your fray
One step forward and another two astray
I wanna run away
I'm not myself, forgotten how to be
I try to swim, you took the air outta me
I know my path but I am scared of clarity
The more I give, the more I bleed
I guess that I'm supposed to say I'm fine
To wear a smile and to live a lie
Truth is I'm dying in your eyes
I'm buried alive
I wanna go
I wanna stay
I wanna find a way to feel okay
You are not the answer, I'm afraid
I wanna stay
I wanna stay
Give the strength to turn and walk away
Break me down or break me out, I pray
I'm falling apart either way
Those lonely nights where I lie awake
My thoughts drift back to you and my heart aches
I say your name and it's all too much to take
Oh when will morning break
The seldom nights where I begin to dream
Our memories are the common theme
And when I wake up, I'm already out of steam
I swear you tear me at the seams
I guess that it's the way it's gonna be
So many nights like these awaiting me
Truth is I'm dying to be free
But I'm dying to see you
I wanna go
I wanna stay
I wanna find a way to feel okay
You are not the answer, I'm afraid
I wanna stay
I wanna stay
Give the strength to turn and walk away
Break me down or break me out, I pray
I'm falling apart either way
Missing you is the hardest thing I've ever had to do
And wishing you'd forget me is the saddest feeling, too
Moving on isn't easy
But holding on's gonna kill me
Truth is I wish I'd never loved at all
You know that I wanna go
I wanna stay
I wanna find a way to feel okay
You are not the answer, I'm afraid
I wanna stay
I wanna stay
Give the strength to turn and walk away
Break me down or break me out, I pray
I'm falling apart either way
(Break me down, break me out)
(Break me down, break me out)
I'm falling apart either way
(Break me down, break me out)
(Break me down, break me out)
(Break me down, break me out)
(Break me down, break me out)
(Break me down, break me out)
