When You Break Lyrics - Islands - Bear's Den

Spoiled, selfish little child 

Went out to play out in the wild 

I found you shaking like a leaf 

Underneath your family tree 

You could never live out in the open 

Regretting every word you've spoken 

When you break it's too late for you to fall apart 

And the blame that you claim is all your own fault 

And you've been crying out for forever 

But forever's come and gone 

You keep begging for forgiveness 

But you don't think you've done wrong 

You've been crying out for forever 

Forever's come and gone 

My bleeding hands, my shaking head 

As your love starts to surround you 

All of their words are trying to drown you 

And you break, it's too late for you to fall apart 

And the blame that you claim is all your own fault 

But you've been crying out for forever 

But forever's come and gone 

You keep begging for forgiveness 

But you don't think you've done wrong 

You've been crying out for forever 

Forever's come and gone 

My bleeding hands, my shaking head 

So tell me another beautiful lie 

Tell me everything I want to hear 

Won't you lay here by my side? 

I want to fuck away all my fear 

Tell me another beautiful lie 

Tell me everything I want to hear 

Won't you lay here by my side? 

I want to fuck away all my fear 

Tell me another beautiful lie 

Tell me everything I want to hear 

Won't you lay here by my side? 

I want to fuck away all my fear 

Tell me another beautiful lie 

Tell me everything I want to hear 

Won't you lay here by my side? 

I want to fuck away all my fear 

And I have seen all that you've seen 

And I have been where you've been 

No, our hands will never be clean 

At least we can hold each other
