Break Me Down

It's too late the time has come I've kept this inside me for way too long Silence will leave me cold Lost on a highway that never takes me home I want to step aside I want to 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 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 I want to step aside I want to give it up Before I lose it all It's tearing me inside The way you break me down I realize Forgiveness Is calling It's calling I've denied The reason I'm falling I'm falling So let go I want to step aside I want to give it up Before I lose it all It's tearing me inside The way you break me down --- Break Me Down - Alter Bridge
