Everynight
I would lie awake alone in my bed
Think of you
Then I'd cry myself to sleep, that's what you said

You were so sure of yourself
By now I'd be out of my mind
So where is the madness
The pain and the sadness
You swore you'd be leavin' behind

Start breaking my heart
Start bringin' me down
Start breaking my heart
Like you swore you'd do to me
Start breaking my heart

(Breaking my heart) Start tearin' me apart
(Breaking my heart) Start breaking my heart
(Breaking my heart) Start breaking my heart
Whoa

Lookin' back
You were good at diggin' into my soul
All the time
Oh, I should've understood you needed control
