[Verse 1]
Broken in
Locked steel doors
From when you walked your way into my life
You called my name
That warm July
Sent shivers running down my spine
[Pre-Chorus]
I've tried turning the page
But the days are dark
Nothing works so far
I know it's probably cliché
But I wanna be wherever you are
[Chorus]
Cause every day feels like a chore
Can't have you, somehow that only makes me want you more
Hope's like a chain, that's keeping me close
Can't have you, somehow that only makes me want you more
[Verse 2]
The way you laugh, the way you dress
To these sore eyes you're a fine sight
You work me up, just to ruin my night
Only want what I can't have, I
[Pre-Chorus]
I've tried turning the page
But the days are dark
Nothin' works so far
I know it's probably cliché
But I wanna be wherever you are
[Chorus]
Cause every day feels like a chore
Can't have you, somehow that only makes me want you more
Hope's like a chain, that's keeping me close
Can't have you, somehow that only makes me want you more
