"This Is How A Heart Breaks"


Don't you wanna go for a ride
Just keep your hands inside and make the most out of life
Now don't you take it for granted
Life is like a mean machine
It made a mess out of me
It left me caught between
Like an angry dream I was stranded,
I was stranded

And I'm steady but I'm starting to shake
And I don't know how much more I can take

Well this is it now, everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks

Don't you wanna go for a ride now to the other side
Feel so good you could cry
Now won't you do what I told you
I remember when you used to be shy
And once we were so fine, you and I,
Now why you gotta make it so hard on me??
Hey it's hard on me

And I'm sorry but it's not a mistake
And I'm running but you're getting away

Well this is it now, everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks

You're not the best thing that I knew
Never was,
Never cared too much for all this hanging around.
It's just the same thing all the time
Never get what I want
Never get too close to the end of a line
You're just the same thing that I knew

Hell this is it now, everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks
