Maybe it's the things I say

Maybe I should think before I speak

But I thought I knew enough 

To know myself and do what's right for me



And these wall I'm building now

You used to bring 'em down

And the tears I'm crying out

You used to wipe away



I thought you said it was easy

Listening to your heart

I thought you said I'd be okay

So why am I breaking apart

Don't wanna be torn [4x]



Don't make me choose between

What I want and what you think I need

'Cause I'll always be your little girl

But even little girls have got to dream

Now it all feels like a fight

You were always on my side

And the lonely I feel now

You used to make it go away



I thought you said it was easy 

Listening to your heart

I thought you said I'd be okay

So why am I breaking apart

Don't wanna be torn 



Why is this all so confusing

Complicated and consuming

Why does all this make me angry

I wanna go back to being happy

These tears I'm crying now you used to wipe away



I thought you said it was easy 

Listening to your heart

I thought you said I'd be okay

So why am I breaking apart

Don't wanna be torn [8x]
