The Break

Everyday I wake try not to get lost
Try to hear myself, try to be my own boss
See I gotta problem with self preservation
Everything is time and it's all I've been wastin'
But not in the way you might think
I've bin tryna swim here, hope I never sink
Then my heart goes black and I'm back on the brink
Give it all I got, then it's gone in a blink

Then the mayors drunk at a party and he tells me that I'm doin' everything all wrong
I wanna disappear, drowned in my beer
But I just try to move on

I bend, I break, I bend, I break
I bend, I break, I bend, I break

Every night I sleep try to get a little rest
Try to dream sweet and forget I'm not the best
'Cause I fight with myself all day like I'm crazy
And my mom keeps askin' when they're gonna pay me
We all wanna make somethin' last
Wanna live long but don't wanna let it pass
And ya can't hold on
Shotgun blast
Give it all I got then it's gone in a flash

Then the basement floods with tears and I can't say where this went wrong
Tryna catch my breath, if I have some left, I'll tell you I'm not gone

I bend, I break, I bend, I break
I bend, I break, I bend, I break

You know I'm gonna smash it
Burn trees to ashes
Gold on the highway
Whatever comes my way
We roll, today, forever

You know I'm gonna smash it
Burn trees to ashes
Gold on the highway
Whatever comes my way

You know I'm gonna smash it
Burn trees to ashes
Gold on the highway
Whatever comes my way

I bend, I break, I bend, I break
I bend, I break, I bend, I break
