== Lyrics ==

<blockquote>
<poem>
I break like glass
You break like waves on the ocean, on the ocean
I tend to crash
And you have to deal with the explosion, though I know that

Everything will always be exactly how it's gonna be
Though I seem to worry every single day
This prodigal turns home again then morning comes and in the end
I see that new sun shining on your face

We begin to bend
We begin to mend
We begin to bend
We begin to mend

I sink like stone
You seem to flow above the madness like wings on canvas
And all that I know
Is that I hear the notes through the darkness like a promise

Everything will always be exactly how it’s gonna be
Though I seem to worry every single day
This prodigal turns home again then morning comes and in the end
I see that new sun shining on your face

We begin to bend
We begin to mend
We begin to bend
We begin to mend

We begin to bend
We begin to mend
We begin to bend
We begin to mend
</poem>
</blockquote>
