Broken Things

I spend my days wasting away Trapped inside my mind, I build my cage There's something in the way you say it'll be okay If only I could let it, everything would change 'Cause my head and my heart want different things If I let you in, would you just leave? My head and my heart want different things Pushing you away 'cause I feel something You told me, "Take a week, come home and be with me I know, I love you, I just can't watch you leave." We're both broken things, you see me crumbling And looking everywhere for some missing piece 'Cause my head and my heart want different things If I let you in, you won't ever leave But my head and my heart want different things I won't run this time, so just stay here with me In my sleep, I've found a home A place to rest my weary eyes and fall with you alone Put broken things together, placing every piece When I finally wear down, will you still be next to me? I need to know what you believe (My mind says, "go") I've been trying to find it ("be all alone") A quiet place for me to breathe ("in that place you know") Been living inside my own head ("be safe alone") And falling apart at the seams I need to know what to believe In my sleep, I've found a home A place to rest my weary eyes and fall with you alone Put broken things together, placing every piece When I finally wear down, will you still be next to me? I need to know what to believe
