Cries that wrack my body
Pillows mask the sound
I've held it in all day
But now I've broken down

The cut has left its mask
My heart is split in two
No longer can I bring myself
To be okay for you

You are not to blame
How could you even see
That while your heart breaks for her
That’s what’s breaking me

I've tried to be a good friend
I've tried to understand
That if I really cared for you
I’d be there till the end

It’s hard to keep my distance
It hurts to stay this near
It hurts that you don’t trust me
With this burden that you bear

Lying in this darkness
Thoughts keep me awake
Think of all these situations
And breaking from the weight

Not knowing what to do
Not knowing what to say
Not knowing how to comfort you
And make it all okay

I feel like I am useless
No good to fix the joint
And really I have come to realize
I've reached my breaking point
