I'll watch you when you say What you are And when you blame Everyone, you broken king I'll watch you change the frame I'll watch you when you take your aim At the sum of everything Bur you and your heart Shouldn't feel so far apart You can't choose what you take Why you gotta break and Make it feel so hard You lay there in the street Like broken glass Reflecting pieces of the sun You're not the flame You cut the people passing by Because you know what you don't like It's just so easy It's just so easy But you and your heart Shouldn't feel so far apart You can't choose What you take Why you gotta break and Make it feel so hard You and your heart Shouldn't feel so far apart You can't choose What you take Why you gotta break and Make it feel so hard You draw so many lines in the sand Lost the fingernails on your hands How you gonna scratch any backs Better hope the tide Will take our lines away Take all our lines and, Hope the tide will take our lines a, Hope the tide will take our lines away Take all our lines away
