[Verse 1]
What a mess my mind has made of me
It's ridiculous the stuff I think
I'm going crazy
But if spring could talk, bet she'd walk
Right up to me and say, "girl
Stop your trying"

[Pre-Chorus]
Well this is how the story goes
We never really get to know
What lies until it shows
We follow where the wind blows

[Chorus]
If you'd break me down
Do my eyes run dry, my eyes run dry? Oh
Why do I hope, why do I care
When my eyes run dry?

[Verse 2]
You know I get so cynical
When I'm looking for my sense of soul
And I can't find it
But if time could sing I bet he'd ring
A melody he wrote for me
Stop your crying
[Pre-Chorus]
Well this is how the story goes
We never really get to know
What lies until it shows
We follow where the wind blows

[Chorus]
If you'd break me down
Do my eyes run dry, my eyes run dry? Oh
Why do I hope, why do I care
When my eyes run dry?

[Bridge]
It's breaking me down
It's tearing me up
It's wearing me out
It's tying my hands
It's over my head
Am I gonna drown?

[Chorus]
If you'd break me down
Do my eyes run dry, my eyes run dry? Oh
Why do I hope, why do I care
When my eyes run dry? Oh
If you'd break me down
Do my eyes run dry, my eyes run dry? Oh
Why do I hope, why do I care
When my eyes run dry? Oh

Keep breaking me down
Til my eyes run dry, my eyes run dry, oh
Why do I hope, why do I care
When my eyes run dry?
