[Verse 1]
All the raindrops
In the sky tonight
Can't compare with all the pain
And all the tears I've cried
But now I'm done
[Verse 2]
All the make believe
Locked in this picture frame
Is gonna stay behind, along with all the burning rage
That's been tearing through my heart
It's killing me slowly
Every beat, I was falling apart
[Chorus]
Sometimes you give
Sometimes they take
Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down
Sometimes you stick around
Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be
And sometimes you leave
[Verse 3]
All this time I've spent
Staring at the door
I never had the strength to pack my bags and leave before
But now I'm done
Lyin' to myself when it's clear that you're not the one
[Chorus]
Sometimes you give
Sometimes they take
Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down
Sometimes you stick around
Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be
And sometimes you leave
[Bridge]
When there's nothing left for me to leave behind
And you're already too far gone to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Sometimes you give
Sometimes they take
Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down
Sometimes you stick around
Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be
And sometimes you leave
[Outro]
Sometimes you leave
All the raindrops
In the sky tonight
Can't compare with all the pain
And all the tears I've cried
But now I'm done
[Verse 2]
All the make believe
Locked in this picture frame
Is gonna stay behind, along with all the burning rage
That's been tearing through my heart
It's killing me slowly
Every beat, I was falling apart
[Chorus]
Sometimes you give
Sometimes they take
Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down
Sometimes you stick around
Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be
And sometimes you leave
[Verse 3]
All this time I've spent
Staring at the door
I never had the strength to pack my bags and leave before
But now I'm done
Lyin' to myself when it's clear that you're not the one
[Chorus]
Sometimes you give
Sometimes they take
Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down
Sometimes you stick around
Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be
And sometimes you leave
[Bridge]
When there's nothing left for me to leave behind
And you're already too far gone to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Sometimes you give
Sometimes they take
Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down
Sometimes you stick around
Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be
And sometimes you leave
[Outro]
Sometimes you leave
