Shaking your head like it's all wrong

Before you're here, you're already gone

And even with the light all around you

You're all alone in the dark

You're breaking your own heart

Taking it too far down a lonely road

You say you just want love

But when it's close enough, you just let it go

The very thing you've been the most afraid of

You've been doing it from the start

Breaking your own heart

Too many tears, too many falls

It's easier here behind these walls

But you don't have to walk in the shadows

Where life is so hard

You're breaking your own heart

Taking it too far down a lonely road

You say you just want love

But when it's close enough, you just let it go

The very thing you've been the most afraid of

You've been doing it from the start

Breaking your own heart

You're breaking your own heart

It's not too late, I'm still right here

If only you'd let go of your fears

You're breaking your own heart

Taking your own heart down a lonely road (Down a lonely road)

You say you just want love

But when it's close enough, you just let it go (You just let it go, you just let it go)

The very thing you've been the most afraid of

You've been doing it from the start

Breaking your own heart

You're breaking your own heart
