  • Watch you when you say
    What you are and when you blame
    Everyone, you broken king
    Watch you change the frame or
    Watch you when you take your aim
    At the sum of everything

    'Cause you and your heart
    Shouldn't feel so far apart
    You can choose what you take
    Why you gotta break and make it feel so hard

    Lay there in the street
    Like broken glass reflecting pieces of the sun
    But you're not the flame
    You got the people passing by
    Because you know what you don't like
    It's just so easy, it's just so easy

    But you and your heart
    Shouldn't feel so far apart
    You can choose what you take
    Why you gotta break and make it feel so hard
    Oh and you and your heart
    Shouldn't feel so far apart
    You can choose what you take
    Why you gotta break and make it feel so hard

    You draw so many lines in the sand
    Lost the fingernails on your hands
    How you're gonna scratch any backs?
    Better hope the tide will take our lines away
    Take all our lines and

    Hope the tide will take our lines and
    Hope the tide will take our lines away
    Take all our lines away Writer/s: Jack Hody Johnson
