Breaking


You can’t expect me to be fine with everything that’s happened.

My heart is beating ten times faster than it should.

It would be much easier if we just stabbed one another.

Instead of breaking our resolve

 

You say it’s just a misunderstanding.

But, I can’t see past all these scars.

I don’t want to fall but, were all out of time.

I don’t want an ending but, I can’t see a light.

 

So, this is the end.

 I’m all out of fight,

And I’m not strong enough to fix it tonight.

I guess I finally know how a broken heart feels.

And I cried you a river, but still, you’ll never know how it feels

 

I can’t run away from you, now.

But I don’t want to feel this pain, anymore.

I don’t want to be that broken person, who can never be whole.

But how can I be okay, if I don’t even recognize ME anymore?

I guess I cried you a river.

What more could you ask for?
