This is how it's been, this is how it will be
And when you wake up with him, remember when it was me
And I always will be waiting for you
And I know that you will never see that

I can't break away from these chains to my heart
The further you push me the closer you are
Maybe I should try to let go
Maybe I should try to walk away
There's nothing left to say, yeah, yeah

Do you remember when you used to laugh there with me
And now I've become the joke, a punch line's all I will be
And I always will be waiting for you
And I know that you will never see that

I can't break away from these chains to my heart
The further you push me the closer you are
Maybe I should try to let go
Maybe I should try to walk away
There's nothing left to say

You'll be waiting for the rest of your life
Just so you can finally miss him
These words don't mean a thing
But I'll say them anyway, anyway, yeah

I can't break away from these chains to my heart
The further you push me the closer you are
Maybe I should try to let go
Maybe I should try to walk away
There's nothing left to say but

I can't break away from these chains to my heart
The further you push me the closer you are
Maybe I should try to let go
Maybe I should try to walk away
There's nothing left to say, yeah, yeah
'Cause I can't break away
