tell me, sell me another lie
and make me cry
shatter my dreams again, tear them apart
and break my heart
there's only so much i can take
and there's nothing left to break
bring to life my greatest fears
and drink my tears
feed upon my insecurities
as if you alone own me
there's only so long i can fake
and there's nothing left to break
scream at me when i do wrong
tell me you wish i was gone
hit me when it ain't perfect
tell me i ain't worth it
there's only so much i can say
and there's nothing left to break
keep me here locked up tight
in the the haunted nights
dim the stars in my eyes
and kill the hopes inside
there's only so much i can take
and there's nothing left to break
you broke what was keeping me here
into so many pieces it just dissapeared
i no longer feel your heavy words
and have grown immune to such hurt
there's only so much you can do
there's nothing left to break, and i'm leaving you
