Sane Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Running from this world
Trying not to scream so loud
Can you hear the sirens
Are they calling for you now?

Wish I could Take it all back I would
Forgive myself honey if only I could
But every day I’m rotting
From the inside out

[Chorus]
I can’t let it break me
I can’t let it break me
I can’t let it break me
Have I let it break me?

[Verse 2]
Writing down the words
Just to never sing them out
How could I expect
Understanding from a crowd

Of strangers sitting in their strange clothes
I wish that I was somewhere else alone
But when I’m there it’s torture
My mind is breaking me down
[Chorus 2]
But I can’t let it break me
I can’t let it break me
I can’t let it break me
Have I let it break me?

[Outro]
Get me out of my brain
I need to feel sane again

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
