Broken Things

I spend my days wasting away
Trapped inside my mind, I build my cage
There’s something in the way you say it’ll be okay
If only I could let it, everything would change
‘Cause my head and my heart want different things
If I let you in, would you just leave?
My head and my heart want different things
Pushing you away ‘cause I feel something
You told me, «Take a week, come home and be with me
I know, I love you, I just can’t watch you leave.»
We’re both broken things, you see me crumbling
And looking everywhere for some missing piece
‘Cause my head and my heart want different things
If I let you in, you won’t ever leave
But my head and my heart want different things
I won’t run this time, so just stay here with me
In my sleep, I’ve found a home
A place to rest my weary eyes and fall with you alone
Put broken things together, placing every piece
When I finally wear down, will you still be next to me?
I need to know what to believe
(My mind says, «go»)
I’ve been trying to find it
(«be all alone»)
A quiet place for me to breathe
(«in that place you know»)
Been living inside my own head
(«be safe alone»)
And falling apart at the seams
I need to know what to believe
In my sleep, I’ve found a home
A place to rest my weary eyes and fall with you alone
Put broken things together, placing every piece
When I finally wear down, will you still be next to me?
I need to know what to believe
