Sometimes

Sometimes, love will break you 'til you burst
And sometimes, you've just gotta come to terms with the fact
That someone might not love you
The same way that you love them
And sometimes, every day feels like the worst
And sometimes, you've got to say, "This fucking hurts"
'Cause someone out there might not make you feel as bad

And this sucks, and I feel it coming for me
And I'd like to quit all this pretending
But every time I feel the pen in my hands
You go and write another ending
Why do you tell me that you listen to my music
When you know that it's about you?
Oh my god, I'm gonna lose it

And I'm broken, but I'm proud
I'm not feeling okay
And I've spoken so loud, so loud
You had to hear me say
That I want you so bad, but I'm still so close to giving up
And everything we had just feel like it was not enough

And I really thought you wanted this
Why can't you accept
The more you push away, the sooner there'll be nothing left?
But I'll keep standing still
Waiting here for you
'Cause sometimes, when your heart is broken, that's all you know how to do

Sometimes, there's not enough to go around
And sometimes, you end up lost before you're found
And sometimes people leave you
And you don't know how to leave them
Sometimes, you have to learn to make mistakes
And sometimes, you have to give more than you take
'Cause, someday, someone will show you the love that you deserve

And maybe you've moved on
I try not to think about it
My friends, they always tell me
I'll get better soon, but I doubt it
Why do we run in circles?
Why do you put me through this?
Why don't you love me?
Oh my god, I can't do this

And I'm broken, but I'm proud
I'm not feeling okay
And I've spoken so loud, so loud
You had to hear me say
That I want you so bad but I'm still so close to giving up
And everything we had just feel like it was not enough

And I really thought you wanted this
Why can't you just accept
The more you push away, the sooner there'll be nothing left?
But I'll keep standing still
Waiting here for you
'Cause sometimes, when your heart is broken, that's all you know how to do

Sometimes, you feel love and you feel lost
And sometimes, you pick up where you left off
And someday, I'll be happy
And I hope that you will be, too
Sometimes, things are better off this way
And sometimes, you have to leave 'cause you can't stay
And when I turn to go, I won't look back at you
'Cause sometimes, when your heart is broken, that's just what you have to do
