Before It Breaks - Brandi Carlile

Around here, it’s the hardest time of year

Waking up, the days are even gone

The collar of my coat

Lord help me, cannot help the cold

The raindrops sting my eyes

I keep them closed

But I’m feelin' no pain

Only the lonely and my quietest friend

Have I the moonlight?

Have I let you in?

Say it ain’t so, say I’m happy again

Say it’s over, say I’m dreaming

Say I’m better than you left me

Say you’re sorry, I can take it

Say you’ll wait, say you won’t

Say you love me, say you don’t

I can make my own mistakes

Let it bend before it breaks

I’m all right.

Don’t I always seem to be?

Aren’t I swinging on the stars?

Don’t I wear them on my sleeve?

When you’re looking for a crossroads

It happens every day

And whichever way you turn

I’m gonna turn the other way

Say it’s over, say I’m dreaming

Say I’m better than you left me

Say you’re sorry, I can take it

Say you’ll wait, say you won’t

Say you love me, say you don’t

I can make my own mistakes

Learn to let it bend before it breaks

Say it’s over say I’m dreaming

Say I’m better than you left me

Say you’re sorry, I can take it

Say you’ll wait, say you won’t

Say you love me, say you don’t

I can make my own mistakes

Let it bend before it breaks
