歌詞

Like my throat’s splitting open, I’m tearing this night apart

There’s a taste of iron left on my tongue

Haven’t even started yet, and I’m already here to end it

Kicked the door with my shoulder, let the whole room know I came

Phone on the table face-down, still buzzing with your name

I’ve been biting through the static, through the noise in my head

Now the crack in my voice sounds louder than what you said

Hands shaking on the rail

Breathing like a busted engine

I can feel the pressure build

So I’m not holding back again

Break, break, let it split wide open

I’m done keeping all this locked up tight

Break, break, I’ve been way too patient

If this is the edge, then I’m stepping off tonight

No more quiet, no more waiting

No more trying to play it safe

Break, break

I’m not made to stay this way

There’s a dent in the hallway wall from where I lost it in July

A stack of unpaid bills, a busted lamp, a white-noise lullaby

I keep trying to be the version that you’d call “easy to read”

But it always comes apart the second somebody gets close to me

Jaw clenched, shirt soaked through

Another round with the same old ghost

If I’m going down, I’m going down

With my name up front, not a joke

Break, break, let it split wide open

I’m done keeping all this locked up tight

Break, break, I’ve been way too patient

If this is the edge, then I’m stepping off tonight

No more quiet, no more waiting

No more trying to play it safe

Break, break

I’m not made to stay this way

Let the cracks show

Let the whole thing give

I’d rather burn through once

Than keep pretending I can live

On borrowed breath

And a fake calm face

If I fall apart, I fall apart

At full volume, in your face

Break, break, let it split wide open

Hear that sound when the walls cave in

Break, break, I’m done holding my own hand

I want the whole room shaking when I step in

No more quiet, no more waiting

No more swallowing the ache

Break, break

I’m not made to stay this way

If I’m breaking, I’m breaking clean
