Take away from me
Here when there's a need
Giving and giving
Heard hard work's its own reward

But it's
Exhausting
Do I need to ask
This pace is too fast
For more than pity's sake
Passion's turned into a chore
Just give me a break
Never learned to bend
Ending up broken

Give up
Washed up
Just can't catch up
Stringing me along
Better off alone
Burnt out
Knocked out

Want a Dire Break
Brake to a stop
I'm calling it off
For all my loyalty
Again you come down hard on me
But it's not my responsibility

If I'm being strong
Or playing the victim
Already proved to you
I wanted to be more of use
But feel I've been used
Never learned to bend
Ending up broken

Give up
Washed up
Just can't catch up
Stringing me along
Better off alone
Burnt out
Knocked out

Want a Dire Break
I can't wait to see
You try to replace me
Won't make the same mistake
I'd sooner take the heartache

There's no need
For your self-flattery
I'm not left reeling in your wake
I'd rather
Die or Break
