Bend & Break

I can't bear

Playing it back anymore

'Cause I know

You don't care

Like you did before

Reach for you just to find something empty and cold

Made up mind, stranger's eyes, no one I used to know

I can't bear to watch

You go

You left me

Coughing blindly on your dust

Cried for weeks

Just to see

There was nothing left of us

Never thought you would burn me this bad, and not care

Walk away from it all, leave me gasping for air

You left me

On my knees

And my momma's telling me

"Give it time" and I

I'll breathe again

But air doesn't taste so sweet

When you're losing a love

Losing a friend

Branches have knots where they have loved

By mistake

But I never thought that we would

Bend and break

Day by day

I can't fight it anymore

'Cause I know

It won't change

Everything that I fell for

I thought we'd move away to a place we could run

Everyday writing songs in the light of the sun

Day by day I feel

More numb

And my momma's telling me

"Give it time" and I

I'll breathe again

But air doesn't taste so sweet

When you're losing a love

Losing a friend

Branches have knots where they have loved

By mistake

But I never thought that we would

Bend and break
