Lyrics

Broken Record

Harder than it ever was And we're talking slowly, I'm about to lose control Remember I was only ten Used to try my best, but you made it on the pedestal And I can't fail I'm a broke fucking record I'm not who I wanted to be And it's only getting harder to believe I'd give my heart but I can't breathe You told me I was cynical Our song on the radio Wondering how I got so drunk with you And I paid my dues for which you judged, didn't you? Faster than I used to be Change was always hard for me Following my fears And I can't fail I'm a broke fucking record I'm not who I wantеd to be And it's only getting harder to bеlieve I'd give my heart but I can't breathe And I can't fail I'm a broke fucking record I'm not who I wanted to be And it's only getting harder to believe I'd give my heart but I can't breathe
