Break me off a

And mix it in

With someone w

[Verse 1]
           
There will be 

no years of si

lence
       
In the shadow 

of regret
        
I won't let it

 so betray me
          
Though my soul

 got used to i

t

       
I will look at

 love as more 

than
        
Just an instru

ment of pain
         
And will give 

myself complet

ely
       
To the moving 

and the strang

e

[Pre-Chorus]

[Verse 2]

nd the years d

epleted
      
Of my willingn

ess to try
         
It won't hurt 

this way forev

er
         
It ain't worth

 the overtime

And I guess I

That none will
