[Verse 1]

Under the shadows, forbidden and hot

Desire grows more often than not

And sorry is a stupid word, it's a stupid thing to say

Especially considering it's not like I planned it this way

But I'm sorry is all that there is left of me

I'm so sorry this love made me whole and left you empty


[Chorus]

Maybe I could've loved you better

Maybe you should've loved me more

Maybe our hearts were just next in line

Maybe everything breaks sometime

Everything breaks sometime


[Verse 2]

It's hard to believe it's boiled down to this

It can't all be just healed by a kiss

It's hard to stare at you, knowing you like I have

We used to feel so close now we feel so bad

And your arms were once just like the safest harbor

But now they offer no shelter from the storm


[Chorus]

Maybe I could've loved you better

Maybe you should've loved me more

Maybe our hearts were just next in line

Maybe everything breaks sometime

Everything breaks sometime


[Outro]

I am so sorry

I guess everything breaks sometime
