same book but never the same page

A Day To Remember

I ve lost a part of me
Cause I am just an open book for everyone to see
I always leave empty handed
I can t keep the things that mean the most to me
I m walking steady on a tightrope
clinging only to the words I wrote
I might be temporarily blind but I m not stupid

Can you tell me how you feel
and look me in the face? (I ve always wanted to know)
I ll go and drop my guard
you put me in my place. (In my place, put in my place)
I can t stand it. I don t get it
Nothing ever seems to work when you re around
You always build me up to break me down

I d give you everything
but that would never be good enough
and that s alright with me
You take me for granted
I tried to help you be who you wanna be
I m a sucker for a complication
Here goes another week it must seem
You weren t worth my time. You weren t worth my time
I still let you take it from me

Can you tell me how you feel
and look me in the face? I ve always wanted to know
I ll go and drop my guard
you put me in my place. (In my place, put in my place)
I can t stand it. I don t get it
Nothing ever seems to work when you re around
You always build me up to break me down

Why do I always do this to myself?
Always depending on everyone else
You know it s going to drive me crazy
You re just a notch in the wall that made me
Why do I always do this to myself?
Always depending on everyone else
You know it s going to drive me crazy
You re just a notch in the wall that made me

Can you tell me how you feel
and look me in the face? I ve always wanted to know
I ll go and drop my guard
you put me in my place. (In my place, put in my place)
I can t stand it. I don t get it
Nothing ever seems to work when you re around
You always build me up to break me down
You always build me up to break me down
I said you ll always build me up to break me down

You break me down!
You break me down!
We never met on middle ground!
You break me
