Breaking & Entering

There was a time when the sky
Held the answers for the things I couldn't find
But what happens when you're blind?
A shooting star once said to me
That nothing's really what it seems
'You must make up your own mind'
Well I'll try this time
So I look to the world outside, oh
All of a sudden, I'm eating my insides
The tiny words that break your heart
They're breaking and entering
So I look but you're not by my side
Whatever happened to 'I would rather die'?
The things that make you fall apart
They're breaking and entering
And I never said I was right
Well I'm probably the one in the wrong
The voices are telling me I just can't always be this strong
And nothing feels right not right now
Like I've lost my mind somehow
I'm scaring myself
I don't know the girl in the mirror now
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
I don't know the girl in the mirror now
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
Well I'm burning up
So I look to the world outside, oh
All of a sudden, I'm eating my insides
The tiny words that break your heart
They're breaking and entering
So I look but you're not by my side
Whatever happened to 'I would rather die'?
The things that make you fall apart
They're breaking and entering
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
They're breaking and entering
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
Well, how can you know?
How can you stay in control when all that you know is
Falling apart? Falling apart
How can you know?
How can you stay in control when all that you know is
Falling apart? Falling apart
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
I don't know the girl in the mirror now
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
Well, I'm burning up
So I look to the world outside, oh
All of a sudden, I'm eating my insides
The tiny words that break your heart
They're breaking and entering
So I look but you're not by my side
Whatever happened to 'I would rather die'?
The things that make you fall apart
They're breaking and entering
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
They're breaking and entering
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
They're breaking and entering
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
They're breaking and entering
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
You're breaking and entering
