Breaking at the Brink

(verse 1)

I'm bleeding on the dirt at your feet,
but all you do is kick it in my face.

Why is it so hard for our eyes to meet,
but now you're love is gone without a trace.

I'm ripping at my mind trying to think,
what life would be like without you here with me.

I'm getting pushed closer and closer to the brink,
and with dirt in my eyes it's so hard to see.

(chorus)

So break me (break me) and leave on the side of the road,
I've got enough strength to carry me (carry me home).

And cut me (cut me) and make me bleed all for you,
but it's nothing compared to what you (what you've put me through).

Leave me (leave me) leave me here to die on my own,
because at least I'll know I died (died all alone).

(verse 2)

I'm rolling and I'm going insane,
trying to get things to be like they were.

I'm sick and tired of this stupid game,
I tried to love you but all it was only a lure.

Now I'm sitting and trying to keep my cool,
but everything is going bad and going south.

I'm trying to figure out why I'm your tool,
but it's so hard to think with a hook in my mouth.

(chorus)

So break me (break me) and leave on the side of the road,
I've got enough strength to carry me (carry me home).

And cut me (cut me) and make me bleed all for you,
but it's nothing compared to what you (what you've put me through).

Leave me (leave me) leave me here to die on my own,
because at least I'll know I died (died all alone).

(Break)

Being pushed to the brink.

(solo)

(verse 3)

I'm clawing at the walls closing in,
they're going further and further around me now.

I'm being bound and gagged by the spirit of my sin,
and the question is when it went wrong and how.

I'm tearing at my heart that got me into this,
just as much its fault as it is my mind's.

People walk by and I'm not hard to miss,
when I'm being crushed by the walls I've been hiding behind.

(Chorus)

So break me (break me) and leave on the side of the road,
I've got enough strength to carry me (carry me home).

And cut me (cut me) and make me bleed all for you,
but it's nothing compared to what you (what you've put me through).

Leave me (leave me) leave me here to die on my own,
because at least I'll know I died (died all alone).

Break me.
(break me)

Cut me
(cut me)

Leave me
(leave me)

It's nothing new.

Break me.
(break me)

Cut me
(cut me)

Leave me
(leave me)

Like you always do.

(spoken)

I'm breaking at the brink.
