"Breaking Me Down" lyrics

"Breaking Me Down"

You used to be so fearless
You used to be so strong
What ever happened to the one that could do no wrong?
How did you get so careless?
How did you get so numb?
Are you the only lie
You're running from

I wish that I could hate you
I wish that I could start by cutting you out
Cause when I look in your eyes
I know I'm watching you drown
I wish that I could save you
I wish that I could start by cutting you out
Cause when I look in your eyes
I know deep inside that holding you up
Holding you up is breaking me down

You don't gotta be perfect
You're not too far gone
But if you can't help yourself
Then you won't move on
The world's not out of focus
It's just what you've become
Don't you see you're the lie
You're running from

I wish that I could hate you
I wish that I could start by cutting you out
Cause when I look in your eyes
I know I'm watching you drown
I wish that I could save you
I wish that I could start by cutting you out
Cause when I look in your eyes
I know deep inside that holding you up
Holding you up is breaking me down

I wish that I could hate you
I wish that I could start by cutting you out
Cause when I look in your eyes
I know I'm watching you drown
I wish that I could save you
I wish that I could start by cutting you out
Cause when I look in your eyes
I know deep inside that holding you up
Holding you up is breaking me down
