[Verse 1]

The sun is gone and the flowers rot

Words are spaces between us

And I should have been drowned

In the rivers I found of token lost

And I should have been down

When you made me insecure

[Chorus]

So break me down if it makes you feel right

And hate me now if it keeps you all right

Oh, you can break me down if it takes all your might

Because I'm so much more

Than meets the eye

[Verse 2]

And I'm the one you can never trust

Because wounds are ways to reveal us

And yeah, I could have tried

And devoted my life to both of us

But what a waste of my time

When the world we have is yours

[Chorus]

So break me down if it makes you feel right

And hate me now if it keeps you all right

Oh, you can break me down if it takes all your might

Because I'm so much more

Than all your lies

[Bridge]

Hate me, break me down

So break me down, down

So break me down

[Chorus]

So break me down if it makes you feel right

And hate me now if it keeps you all right

Oh, you can't break me down if it takes all your might

Because I'm so much more

Than meets the eye
