I'm about to try and give you one more chance
Baby, can you promise you won't break my heart?
All my friends are saying that I'm being so stupid
I can't help that you're the only drug that I'm using
Yeah, I keep using, I keep using
And you're using me too
It's useless, I keep using
No, I never pull through, it's useless
So go on, break my heart
We were broken from the start
So go on, break my heart
Oh, yeah
We were broken from the start
We were broken from the start
(We were broken from the start)
We were broken from the start
(We were broken from the start)
I'm about to try and give you one more chance
Even though I know I'm gonna fall apart
All my friends are calling me, but no, I'm not listening
I can't help that you're the only drug in my system
Yeah, I keep using, I keep using
And you're using me too
It's useless, I keep using
No, I never pull through, it's useless
So go on, break my heart
We were broken from the start
So go on, break my heart
Oh, yeah
We were broken from the start
We were broken from the start
(We were broken from the start)
We were broken from the start
(We were broken from the start)
20 steps forwards and 20 steps backwards
Runnin' in circles and kissin' disaster
20 steps backwards and 20 steps forwards
Runnin' in circles, I'm runnin' back toward ya
I take 20 steps forwards and 20 steps backwards
Runnin' in circles and kissin' disaster
20 steps backwards and 20 steps forwards
Runnin' in circles, I'm runnin' back toward
