Broken

Don't wanna give you promises
That I can't keep
I don't wanna waste your time
A little after midnight
Just before I sleep
There's nothing but you on my mind
I bet you don't know
How I'm feeling
'Cause we haven't seen each other
In a while
Maybe you, you are the wave
I've been searching for
Take me away
Where I need no more
'Cause when I say goodbye
I thought I was sure
Now I'm more broke
Than I've ever been before
A hundred conversations
Just to reassure me
That I've done the best I can
But I see me as a stranger
In my own skin
I feel like only half a man
I bet you don't know
How I'm feeling
'Cause we haven't seen each other
In a while
Maybe you, you are the wave
I've been searching for
Take me away
Where I need no more
'Cause when I say goodbye
I thought I was sure
Now I'm more broke
Than I've ever been before
I've seen the light that maybe you're
The wave that I've been searching for
I've seen the light that maybe you're
The wave that I've been searching for
I've seen the light that maybe you're
The wave that I've been searching for
I've seen the light that maybe you're
The wave that I
Maybe you, you are the wave
I've been searching for
Take me away
Where I need no more
'Cause when I say goodbye
I thought I was sure
Now I'm more broke
Than I've ever been before
