"Everything Breaks" lyrics

"Everything Breaks"

Under the shadows, forbidden and hot
Desire grows more often than not
Sorry is a stupid word
It's a stupid thing to say
Especially considering
It's not like I planned it this way

But I'm sorry is all that there is left of me
I'm so sorry this love made me whole
And left you empty

Maybe I should've loved you better
Maybe you should've loved me more
Maybe our hearts were just next in line
Maybe everything breaks sometime
Everything breaks sometime

It's hard to believe it's boiled down to this
It can't all be just healed by a kiss
It's hard to stare at you, knowing you like I have
We used to feel so close; now we feel so bad
And your arms were once just like the safest harbor
But now they offer no shelter from the storm

Maybe I could've loved you better
Maybe you should've loved me more
Maybe our hearts were just next in line
Maybe everything breaks sometime
Everything breaks sometime
I am so sorry
I guess everything breaks sometime
