The Art of Breaking

By Tamara Raidt

I’ve been a mess lately but a mess who knows

How to break gracefully, I’ll show you how it goes

 

Don’t tell anyone the way you’re dying to feel alive

Don’t tell anyone ‘bout the creepy feeling

That creeps in at night

 

Break down in tears but you wish you could

Break free instead, from your peers, from your peers

 

Tramp on my boundaries, aren’t they what they’re meant for?

No is a luxury I ain’t sure I can afford

 

Don’t tell anyone the way you’re dying to feel alive and

Don’t tell anyone ‘bout the creepy feeling

deep down you know that

 

After all this time begins the healing

now you’ve mastered, the art of breaking

 

the art of breaking.
