You've been my muse for a long time 00:21

You get me through every dark night 00:26

I'm always gone, out on the go 00:31

I'm on the run and you're home alone 00:34

I'm too consumed with my own life 00:36

Are we too young for this? 00:42

Feels like I can't move 00:47

Sharing my heart, it's tearing me apart 00:50

But I know I'd miss you, baby, if I left right now 00:54

Doing what I can, tryna be a man 01:01

And every time I kiss you, baby, I can hear the sound 01:04

Of breaking down 01:08

01:12

I've been confused as of late (yeah) 01:22

Watching my youth slip away (yeah) 01:27

You're like the sun, you wake me up 01:32

But you drain me out if I get too much 01:35

I might need room or I'll break 01:38

Are we too young for this? 01:44

Feels like I can't move 01:48

Sharing my heart, it's tearing me apart 01:51

(Breaking down, breaking down, breaking down, breaking down) 02:16

I don't want to play this part 02:22

But I do, all for you 02:28

I don't want to make this hard 02:33

But I will 'cause I'm still 02:37

Sharing my heart, it's tearing me apart 02:43

But I know I'd miss you, baby, if I left right now (I know I would) 02:46

Doing what I can, tryna be a man (be your man) 02:53

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

You've been my muse for a long time

You get me through every dark night

I'm always gone, out on the go

I'm on the run and you're home alone

I'm too consumed with my own life

Are we too young for this?

Feels like I can't move

Sharing my heart, it's tearing me apart

But I know I'd miss you, baby, if I left right now

Doing what I can, tryna be a man

And every time I kiss you, baby, I can hear the sound

Of breaking down

...

I've been confused as of late (yeah)

Watching my youth slip away (yeah)

You're like the sun, you wake me up

But you drain me out if I get too much

I might need room or I'll break

Are we too young for this?

Feels like I can't move

Sharing my heart, it's tearing me apart

But I know I'd miss you, baby, if I left right now

Doing what I can, tryna be a man

And every time I kiss you, baby, I can hear the sound

Of breaking down

(Breaking down, breaking down, breaking down)

(Breaking down, breaking down, breaking down, breaking down)

I don't want to play this part

But I do, all for you

I don't want to make this hard

But I will 'cause I'm still

Sharing my heart, it's tearing me apart

But I know I'd miss you, baby, if I left right now (I know I would)

Doing what I can, tryna be a man (be your man)

And every time I kiss you, baby, I can hear the sound

Of breaking down

(Sharing my bed, uh)

(Sharing my bread, yeah)

(Sharing my bread)

(Sharing my head, I'm breaking down)

(Sharing my heart)

(Sharing my-, suddenly, I'm breaking down)

(Sharing my-, I'm done)

(Sharing my life)
