Break My Heart

And another day goes by

where I'm stuck still wondering why

I'm in the passenger seat

of a car that's going nowhere.

I could sit here by your side,

or I could take a chance and try

my best

to find someone

who doesn't let me down.

And it's time

to hear the words that I've been saying.

Nevermind

my promises before.

We could try

to fix these ties before they're broken.

Say my name

and I am there,

but I still don't know what I'm here for.

And you know that being happy

doesn't have to be this hard.

Don't you see with every risk you take

you go and break my heart?

I can't stand here any longer

simply nodding soft and slow,

'cause I know

that doing nothing is worse than letting go.

And it's time

to hear the words that I've been saying.

Nevermind

my promises before.

We could try

to fix these ties before they're broken.

Say my name

and I am there,

but I still don't know what I'm here for.
