[Verse 1]
You got your hands on my throat
Like you own the key
Smoke in the bathroom light
And the ash on me
You smile like a cut wire
You pull till it shows
Say my name like a warning
Then you let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
Roll it up, roll it tight
Tie me to the hate
Get me close, get me gone
Make me easy prey
[Chorus]
Break me down
Break me down
Make me your escape
Break me down
Break me down
Till I’m barely awake
Smoke me up
Smoke me up
Till there’s nothing left to take
Break me down
Break me down
With your tongue of lies
[Verse 2]
You want the sharpest part
You want the bloodless grin
Cut across my good side
Let the damage in
I wear the bruise like proof
You wear the blame like skin
Every time you come back
You start me up again
[Pre-Chorus]
Roll it up, roll it tight
Tie me to the gate
Get me close, get me gone
Make me feel the weight
[Chorus]
Break me down
Break me down
Make me your escape
Break me down
Break me down
Till I’m barely awake
Smoke me up
Smoke me up
Till there’s nothing left to take
Break me down
Break me down
With your tongue of lies
[Bridge]
I know your pretty hurt
I know your holy rage
You love the way I bend
When you fill the cage
So come on, take your shot
Come on, say my name
If I’m your little exit
Then burn me the same
[Final Chorus]
Break me down
Break me down
Make me your escape
Break me down
Break me down
Till I’m barely awake
Smoke me up
Smoke me up
Till there’s nothing left to take
Break me down
Break me down
With your tongue of lies
