No one ever told me
It would come to this
What began with such a promise
Would end with such a twist
I lean into the whisper
But I don't hear a thing
It's a tear in the dark
All alone in the car
In pieces, in pieces
It's the sound of mistake
As I lie here awake
Sleepless, sleepless
This is the sound that's made
When a heart breaks
•••
Everybody's laughing
Maybe that's just me
Does something unrequited
Mean it will never be
I lean into the whisper
But I don't hear a thing
It's a tear in the dark
All alone in the car
In pieces, in pieces
It's the sound of mistake
As I lie here awake
Sleepless, sleepless
This is the sound that's made
Please don't leave me here
Please don't leave me here
Please don't leave me here
Please don't leave me here
Life, for now, I've come to fear
You've dropped me off and left me here
With nothing here to find my way
But the lights you take as you pull away
Far ahead the brush is moving
There's others here and good's still proving
Nothing's wrong, it's in my mind
Nothing's wrong and I'll be find
It's a tear in the dark
All alone in the car
In pieces, in pieces
It's the sound of mistake
As I lie here awake
Sleepless, sleepless
This is the sound that's made
When a heart breaks
