Cracked

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

Tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't try to hide, they will see you

Don't try to lie, they will see your eye

Just wave goodbye to your dreams

It's life in circles

[Chorus]

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

Tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

Tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on

[Bridge]

Life is cruel, but so am I

So it really should be no surprise I got nothing

Take a breath, count to five

Cross your fingers, close your eyes, still nothing

I don’t blame me, so let things be

It’s not that I put simple things beneath me

Not me

The world is wrong, the world is cracked

And that’s why I get nothing back

[Verse 2]

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

Tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m going ‘round in a circle

I’m going down like a falling stone

And I’ve got nothing to slow me down

I’m down now

[Chorus]

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

They tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

They tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

Tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on

They take until it’s gone

They give you nothing back

And they will squeeze you ‘til you’re dry

This is cracked, this is cracked

Tell you what you need

This is how you got to go on
