Break down, hysteric and young

Uncomfortably numb

Then you sent my pain into oblivion

I was on the verge of breaking down

Then you came around

And not a second too late (too late, too late, too late)

Well, give two fingers to the person that I used to be

You shook the noose, slipped my head loose

And now that boy is history

And you see that I knew better, yeah, I knew better

Than to refuse your hand, you rescued me from myself

Oh, just slip the noose

Untie the rope from my wrists

I was about to let go

'Til I knew you existed

Break down, hysteric and young

Uncomfortably numb

Then you sent my pain into oblivion

I was on the verge of breaking down

Then you came around

And not a second too late

Well, loneliness is hell and you're alone

But I can tell you that it's everything you need

Because it brought you back to me

And now you see that I knew better, yeah, I knew better

Than to refuse your hand, you rescued me from myself

Oh, just slip the noose

Untie the rope from my wrists

I was about to let go

'Til I knew you existed

Break down, hysteric and young

Uncomfortably numb

Then you sent my pain into oblivion

I was on the verge of breaking down

Then you came around

And not a second too late

(Too late, too late, too late

Too late, too late, it's not too late, oh no)

Oh, just slip the noose

Untie the rope from my wrists

So break down, hysteric and young

Uncomfortably numb

Then you sent my pain into oblivion

I was on the verge of breaking down

(Oh, just slip the noose, untie the rope from my wrists)

I was on the verge of breaking down

(I was about to let go 'til I knew you existed)

I was on the verge of breaking down

Then you came around

And not a second too late
