When You Break

Spoilt, selfish, little child

Went out to play out in the wild.

We found you shaking like a leaf

Underneath your family tree.

You could never live out in the open,

Regretting every word you've spoken.

When you break, it's too late for you to fall apart,

And the blame that you claim is all your own fault.

And you've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone

You keep begging for forgiveness

But you don't think you've done wrong

You've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone.

My pleading hands, your shaking head

As your love starts to surround you

All of their words are trying to drown you

And you break, it's too late for you to fall apart

And the blame that you claim is all your own fault

But you've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone.

You keep begging for forgiveness

But you don't think you've done wrong.

You've been crying now for forever

But forever's come and gone.

My pleading hands, your shaking head

Tell me another beautiful lie

Tell me everything I want to hear

Oh won't you lay here by my side

I want to **** away all my fear

But I have seen all that you have seen

And I have been where you have been.

No, our hands will never be clean

At least we can hold each other.
