Know Better by August Eve Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe when it's over
I'll say that I saw it coming
Always tired and unsure
Of where this thing was running

[Chorus]
Hold me like I was breaking in pieces
Truth is, I'd like to keep me from bleeding
But I know better than to play with your feelings
I break down before I tell you I'm leaving

[Verse 2]
Maybe when it's over
I can get you out of my head
Always on another
Reason to leave things unsaid

[Chorus]
Hold me like I was breaking in pieces
Truth is, I'd like to keep me from bleeding
But I know better than to play with your feelings
I break down before I tell you I'm leaving
[Bridge]
Deeper than I ever knew
I feel it
Hiding when I'm next to you
I see it
Long after these days are through
I feel it
What am I supposed to do?

[Chorus x2]
Hold me like I was breaking in pieces
Truth is, I'd like to keep me from bleeding
But I know better than to play with your feelings
I break down before I tell you I'm leaving
