Breaking My Back
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Watch the glass break over again
Tried to fix it once, but
Still look the same
Baby, some things you can't erase
Saw the penny drop
It bounced again
Try to make it stop, but
Still moved the same
Maybe, some things you can't explain
Some things change
Babe you're breaking my back
You're breaking my back
I'm breaking the wall
Too young to fall
Too old to crawl
You're changing my mind
Changing my mind
I'm changing the rules
Too late to call
It's too late to call
Saw the mirror fall
It shattered a dream
Tried to pick it up
Maybe some things you can't erase
Some things change
Babe you're breaking my back
You're breaking my back
I'm breaking the wall
Too young to fall
Too old to crawl
You're changing my mind
Changing my mind
I'm changing the rules
Too late to call
It's too late to call
