Breaking By

I saw the images sliding away I saw the innocence die in your eyes that day A fickle mind in a fucked up place When your willingness arrives, it's dying away In the fall, I met this girl named Grace With a face like Debbie Harry, who was nice on skates And for a sec, she was my every day Until her silence implied that I get out of the way Breaking by Beating your heart to keep alive Playing to save your peace of mind You know you sell it well And I'll be sneaking by Leaving your feet to sink inside Praying the week won't take its time You're so beside yourself You know you sell it well You know you sell it well You know Live in your mind sometimes You live in your mind You live in your mind sometimes You live in your mind Another week goes by You gotta put that thing aside I can't live without it I can't seem to see or breathe without it I can't lift my body, I hate my body The things I'm running from I know I keep on wanting to be somebody new Breaking by Beating your heart to keep alive Playing to save your peace of mind You know you sell it well And I'll be sneaking by Leaving your feet to sink inside Praying the week won't take its time You're so beside yourself You know you sell it well (you sell it well, ah) You know you sell it well (you sell it well, ah) You know (oh-oh)
