[Verse 1]

Well I just don't get it

Can't make the pieces fit

I might just as well forget it

But my heart won't let me quit


[Pre-Chorus]

You say it's only a part of love

That's right

But I get a little worried sometimes

When I start to lose

Tired of holding it together

When I know I'm going to blow another fuse


[Chorus]

I'm at my breaking point

At my breaking point

I'm at my breaking point

At my breaking point


[Verse 2]

Well you're never gonna get it

If you don't get up and try

Try and spread those wings around me

Honey, let me see you fly


[Pre-Chorus]


[Chorus]


[Verse 3]

Maybe someday you'll recover

I can see it in your eyes

One more thing that you'll discover

That you'll finally realize


[Chorus][x3]
