Alter Bridge
Break Me Down
[Verse 1]
It's too late, the time has come
I kept this inside me for way too long
Silence will leave me cold
Lost on a highway that never takes me home
[Chorus]
I wanna step aside
I wanna give it up
Before I lose it all
It's tearing me inside
The way you break me down
Oh, there will come a time
When I will come undone
And you will let me fall
I'll leave it all behind
Before you break me down
[Verse 2]
The weight of a thousand lies
Promises broken haunt me all the time
You say that you're sure to change
But that black heart reveals that
You'll always stay the same
(Always stay the same)
[Chorus]
I wanna step aside
I wanna give it up
Before I lose it all
It's tearing me inside
The way you break me down
Oh, there will come a time
When I will come undone
And you will let me fall
I'll leave it all behind
Before you break me down
[Bridge]
And I've realized forgiveness
Is calling
And it's calling
And I've denied the reason
I'm falling
Yeah, I'm falling
So let go
[Chorus]
I wanna step aside
I wanna give it up
Before I lose it all
It's tearing me inside
The way you break me down
Oh, there will come a time
When I will come undone
And you will let me fall
I'll leave it all behind
Before you break me down
