[Verse 1]
Yeah I'm listening
But it keeps breaking up
The awkward silence
Says more than enough
We choose to live this way
Trading sighs over the airwaves
Waiting for one-another to finally hang up
[Pre-Chorus]
Imma stay true to myself
I can't be anyone else
No matter what you think of me
You can't just blow up and leave
You wear your heart on your sleeve
Will enough be enough
[Chorus]
I've been here many times
But never draw the line
You won't support my dreams
I'll make new memories
Can't take back anything
You've ever said to me
I'm standing on my feet
I'm breaking (I'm breaking)
I'm breaking the silence
I'm breaking the silence
[Verse 2]
I'm tired of all the guilt
Sickness when I hear your name
Memories of you and I driving me insane
Smoke blown in every mirror
You make jokes of all my fears
You can't see inside
Still I wonder I why
[Pre-Chorus]
Imma stay true to myself
I can't be anyone else
No matter what you think of me
But now you're down on your knees
This time it's my turn to leave
I was never good enough
[Chorus]
I've been here many times
But never draw the line
You won't support my dreams
I'll make new memories
Can't take back anything
You've ever said to me
I'm standing on my feet
I'm breaking (I'm breaking)
I'm breaking the silence
I'm breaking the silence
[Breakdown]
I'm breaking the silence
I'm breaking the silence
Never good enough
But I'm standing up
[Chorus]
I've been here many times
But never draw the line
You won't support my dreams
I'll make new memories
Can't take back anything
You've ever said to me
I'm standing on my feet
I'm breaking (I'm breaking)
I'm breaking the silence
I'm breaking the silence
[Outro]
I'm breaking the silence
I'm breaking the silence
