[Verse 1]
You called me a nightlight
When your room was feeling dark
Call me for a good time
When you needed a justice spark
I became your religion
Never believed in my God
You called me a nightlight
Warmed your hands up to my heart
[Chorus]
The pressure got to me
I couldn't be your everything
I couldn’t give you all that you needed
So I bent until I broke
A thousand pieces on the floor
I won't be coming back for more
I'm rebuilding
(I don’t know when I'll stop carrying the emotional weight of everyone around)
[Verse 2]
You said if I ever left you
You'd go crazy as hell
But how could I love you
When you refuse to get help?
I couldn't keep it up any longer
And I knew you could tell
So I kept getting dimmer, and dimmer
'Til I forgot about myself
[Chorus]
The pressure got to me
I couldn't be your everything
I couldn't give you all that you needed
So I bent in two
I broke a thousand pieces on the floor
I won't be coming back for more
I’m rebuilding
[Bridge]
I’m picking up the pieces in the corner
From that day years ago, years ago
But I won't break like that again
I’m picking up the pieces in the corner
From that day years ago, years ago
But I won't break like that again
[Chorus]
The pressure, it got to me
I couldn't be your everything, no
I couldn't give you all that you needed
So I’ve bent until I broke
A thousand pieces on the floor
I won't be coming back for more
I'm rebuilding
No, I won't be coming back for more
I'm rebuilding
