When You Break

[Verse 1]

Spoiled, selfish little child

Went out to play out in the wild

I found you shaking like a leaf

Underneath your family tree

You could never live out in the open

Regretting every word you've spoken

When you break, it's too late for you to fall apart

And the blame that you claim is all your own fault

[Chorus]

But you've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone

You keep begging for forgiveness

But you don't think you've done wrong

You've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone

My pleading hands, your shaking head

[Verse 2]

And as your love starts to surround you

All of their words are trying to drown you

When you break, it's too late for you to fall apart

And the blame that you claim is all your own fault

[Chorus]

But you've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone

You keep begging for forgiveness

But you don't think you've done wrong

You've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone

My pleading hands, your shaking head

[Bridge]

So tell me another beautiful lie

Tell me everything I want to hear

Won't you lay here by my side?

I want to fuck away all my fear

Tell me another beautiful lie

Tell me everything I want to hear

Won't you lay here by my side?

I want to fuck away all my fear

Tell me another beautiful lie

Tell me everything I want to hear

Won't you lay here by my side?

I want to fuck away all my fear

Tell me another beautiful lie

Tell me everything I want to hear

Won't you lay here by my side?

I want to fuck away all my fear

[Outro]

And I have seen all that you have seen

And I have been where you have been

No, our hands will never be clean

At least we can hold each other
