lyrics

TOOK A TRIP AND I FELL RIGHT BACK
TO THE POSITION I WAS IN BEFORE I FELL OFF TRACK.
A VICIOUS CYCLE. A DOWNWARD SPIRAL.
ITS LIKE MY LIFE IS ON REPEAT AND NO, I CANT TURN THE DIAL.
LOVE OR LUST? I CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT
BUT I DON'T REALLY GIVE A FUCK. STAY IGNORANT TO MY DOUBT.
NOT SURE IF I WOULD EVEN CHANGE IT IF I WAS GIVEN THE CHANCE
BECAUSE THERE HAS TO BE A REASON THAT WE KEEP COMING BACK TO THIS.
YOU'VE LOST ME AND I'VE LOST YOU TOO.
BUT WE FOUND EACH OTHER AGAIN THE WAY THAT WE ALWAYS SEEM TO DO.
PRETEND ITS GOING TO WORK. LIGHT A MATCH AT BOTH ENDS.
WATCH IT BURN UP THEN TRY IT ALL OVER AGAIN.

YOU'VE BROKEN ME. YOU'VE BROKEN ME DOWN.
BUT STILL I KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
BECAUSE NOBODY KNOWS ME LIKE YOU DO.
YOU'VE BROKEN ME. YOU'VE BROKEN ME DOWN.
BUT STILL I KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
BECAUSE NOBODY LOVES YOU LIKE I DO.

WHY DO I FEEL THE NEED?
THE PERSISTENCE JUST TO BE WRAPPED IN YOUR ARMS?
MY BETRAYER. MY PRETENDER. MY PROTECTOR.
YOU HURT ME BAD. SO I QUIT YOU.
WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG TO SEE?
MAYBE CAUSE OF ALL THE GOOD LOVE THAT YOU GAVE TO ME.
YOU GAVE IT SO GOOD.

YOU'VE BROKEN ME. YOU'VE BROKEN ME DOWN.
BUT STILL I KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
BECAUSE NOBODY KNOWS ME LIKE YOU DO.
YOU'VE BROKEN ME. YOU'VE BROKEN ME DOWN.
BUT STILL I KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
BECAUSE NOBODY LOVES YOU LIKE I DO.

YOU'RE BAD NEWS AND I KNOW IT
BUT I'M JUST WAITING TO SEE WHOSE TURN ITS GUNNA BE NOW TO BLOW IT.
LIFE’S KINDA FUNNY. YEAH, ITS REALLY A JOKE
BUT I'M NOT LAUGHING CAUSE THE IRONY IS MAKING ME CHOKE.
I'VE BEEN BITING MY TONGUE JUST TO SAY HELLO
BUT I JUST NEED YOU IN MY LIFE AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW
I'D GIVE IT ALL UP FOR ONE MORE CHANCE
EVEN THOUGH I KNOW WE'LL NEVER FIND THE RHYTHM TO DANCE.
IT'S SO STUPID. IT MAKES ME FEEL SO USELESS.
WE BOTH KNOW WHAT WANT BUT LACK THE COURAGE TO DO IT.
JUST BECAUSE WE WEREN’T BUILT TO HOLD THE WEIGHT OF ANOTHER
DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE CAN NOT FIND THE STRENGTH TO CARRY EACH OTHER.

IT MADE IT EASIER TO FORGET THAT THIS WONT WORK FOR ME.
NOW THE TIME HAS COME FOR ME TO RUN AND LET YOU BE.

YOU'VE BROKEN ME. YOU'VE BROKEN ME DOWN.
BUT STILL I KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
BECAUSE NOBODY KNOWS ME LIKE YOU DO.
YOU'VE BROKEN ME. YOU'VE BROKEN ME DOWN.
BUT STILL I KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
BECAUSE NOBODY LOVES YOU LIKE I DO.
