Hearts cannot be broken, they're small squishy things

They don't break like glass but they bruise easily

This one you bruise

Words will not be spoken never knowing what they mean

Sticks and stones hurt my bones, your promises have broken me

Each one you break



CHORUS

And I want to be good but good is being simple

Simple is forgetting

I simply can't forget

I want to be good but good is being simple

SImple is forgetting

And I simply can't forget



Eyes are always open even when they sleep

Mine are mostly closed while yours are wandering

You look where you please



CHORUS



I want to be great but greatness is giving

Giving leaves me empty

Oh great emptiness



Souls cannot be taken, they're large and they're loud

Yours merely whispers lately; seems it's shrinkin'

I wish it would speak



CHORUS



I want to be great but greatness is giving

Giving leaves me empty

Oh great emptiness
