It Bends Until It Breaks

Dragging it on
Staying too long
The feeling was gone hours ago
Still you stay in this empty place
Caught between
The tired faces that you love
This used to be enough

Now the people that you meet
Keep you drowning in defeat
Keep you asking what it means
Until you're grasping at these dreams
They put on you
If you think you've had enough
Why not give it up

Love is the law
Burning and flawed
Lighting the fire
Under you
Nobody moves
When secrets are loose
Shut it down
Before it tells on you

In desperate pursuit
In search of the truth
Keeps you guessing
Every night
While you're still awake
While morning breaks
All these promises you've made
As they become your first mistake

But it's too late to change your mind
It's too late to apologize
Save those lines for someone else
That still believes that you mean well

Throw it all away
In this game we pay to play
It's the same shit every day
It bends until it breaks
Now there's nothing I could say
That would make you feel the same
Bite my tongue and get out of the way
