And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your life
When everything feels like the movies

When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
