[Verse 1]

I wear the red shoes with the holes

To remind me what we went through

Sit down here, kick 'em off enough

I've not had enough of you

I tell you, "You know the car you drive

Keeps breaking down and never starts"

Next thing, I'm pulling up to you

We're in the backseat, driving it home

No one wants to be alone

[Chorus]

What do you do?

What do you do when everything is broken?

What do you say?

What do you say when no words fit the moment?

'Cause you're not here

And even if you were, all I could say is

What do I do? What do I do?

We're broken, but I can't throw us away

[Verse 2]

The video of our vacation's

Chewed up in the drawer beside me

She thinks I never got to watch it

I'm so glad I made a copy

The sky got bitter twisted

Just like you and me, I miss it

You snap it, bend it, burn it

Then you find that you can't fix it

Fall back on whatever still remains

[Chorus]

What do you do?

What do you do when everything is broken?

What do you say?

What do you say when no words fit the moment?

'Cause you're not here

And even if you were, all I could say is

What do I do? What do I do?

We're broken, but I can't throw us away

[Bridge]

Breaking you in, breaking your heart

I was taking it all and I tore you apart

Breaking me in, breaking my heart

And the damage was done

But I took what you got

We were breakin' it, smashin' it

Takin' it, lovin' it, hatin' it

Drivin' it home

And now I'm all, now I'm all alone

[Breakdown]

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, oh

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Oh, what do you do?

Oh, what do you do?

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Chorus]

What do you do?

What do you do when everything is broken?

What do you say?

What do you say when no words fit the moment?

'Cause you're not here

And even if you were, all I could say is

What do I do? What do I do?

We're broken, but I can't throw us away
