BOUND TO BREAK

 

The cards seem to deal me much too hard these days

Folded hands get shuffled back to play

No I'm not one to make excuses for my current state

All I'm askin' is for an empty slate, oh

 

It's the same old day

Nothing new, nothing's changed

You keep digging for heaven, but there's only hell to pay

And I'm holding my breath like the whole world's at stake

And I don't know how much more I'm down to take

Something's bound to break

 

The pressure builds and fills your fragile figure to the bone

How many days can you command alone?

I have no plans to jump this ship or turn around mid-flight

No I'm not going down without a fight, no

 

It's the same old day

Nothing new, nothing's changed

You keep digging for heaven, but there's only hell to pay

And I'm holding my breath like the whole world's at stake

And I don't know how much more I'm down to take

Something's bound to break

 

Oh, I'm not sure how anyone survives

But you've got to realize

That you can't give in until the miracle arrives

 

It's the same old day

Nothing new, nothing's changed

You keep digging for heaven, but there's only hell to pay

And I'm holding my breath like the whole world's at stake

And I don't know how much more I'm down to take
