Breaking Every Night

VERSE 1

Time away from you hasn’t been that long

But to me it feels like eternity

Somehow I’ve healed, but it’s still hurting me

PRE-CHORUS

Sometimes I wonder who we’d be

If I’d done a little better, tried a little harder

Now I’m blaming myself

Wishing I’d done it differently

VERSE 2

And mama, it hurts, I was just letting my guard down

Just when I was gonna get to know you

Just when I was getting attached

You cut it off at the drop of a hat — just like that

PRE-CHORUS 2

You listed all your reasons

But none of them add up to me

I smelled bullshit from the very beginning

Still I’m here trying to heal

CHORUS

Now I’m trying to heal and get over this

But the damage this connection left

Is all but unbearable, baby

It’s all but intolerable, darling

VERSE 3 / REFLECTION

I’ve spent so many nights inside my head

Wondering who we could’ve been

If I’d done a little better

If I’d tried a little harder

Now I’m blaming myself again

SECOND CHORUS (ESCALATION)

I keep trying to heal and get over this

But the damage this connection left

Is all but unbearable, baby

It’s all but intolerable, darling

I tell myself I’ll be alright

But I’m breaking a little every night

OUTRO

Time away from you hasn’t been that long

But it still feels like eternity

And mama, it hurts

I was just starting to get to know you

Just about to show you what I’m capable of
