Is this what you want Every finger points at me This might be funny If it wasn't such a tragedy After a while It gets harder to smile And pretend that things are OK So when you need me in the middle of the night I won't be there 'cause you're always breaking my heart You're always breaking my heart you always tear it apart Yeah oh yeah So cross yourself now Get down on your knees and pray But no powers from heaven Could ever take the darkness away I've tried climbing your walls (ah ah ah) But you've built them too tall (ah ah ah) So it's time I walk away now (walk away now) And when you call me in the middle of the night (of the night) There's no one there 'cause you're always breaking my heart You're always breaking my heart You always tear it apart Yeah yeah yeah Reach out a hand to hold (ah ah ah) Ain't it sad when the distance grows (ah) Two hearts cling to their fates Remember that first embrace But I can't worry anymore So when you need me in the middle of the night (of the night) I won't be there 'cause you're always breaking my heart You're always breaking my heart You always tear it apart Oh yeah You're always breaking my heart You're always breaking my heart You always tear it apart Yeah yeah yeah
