We can try and talk but the fighting always gets in the way
(The crying never stops cuz the fighting always gets in the way)
There's no need to clean it up cause it's all running down the drain
(Everything is lost when it's all running down the drain)

We turn harmony into silence
Over love the love the love the love
Which led harmlessly into violence
Over love the love the love the love
Hearts will always break
They're fragile in design

But I went and messed it up
I've gone and done it
I always hurt somebody when I fall in love
And that's just how it goes
I went and messed it up again
I've gone and done it
I said it wouldn't happen again
That's just how it goes
I said it wouldn't happen again
It's how it always goes

We pretend to get along but the smile's getting harder to fake
(It's tough to play along when the smile's getting harder to fake)
We're saying nothing's wrong, all the while fading further away
(Each day we carry on, all the while fading further away)

We turn harmony into silence
Over love the love the love the love
Which led harmlessly into violence
Over love the love the love the love
Hearts will always break
They're fragile in design

But I went and messed it up
I've gone and done it
I always hurt somebody when I fall in love
And that's just how it goes
I went and messed it up again
I've gone and done it
I said it wouldn't happen again
That's just how it goes
I said it wouldn't happen again
It's how it always goes

I said it wouldn't happen again
All the long nights that i missed
I said it wouldn't happen again
All your painful loneliness
I said it wouldn't happen again
All the broken promises
I said it wouldn't happen again

That's how it always goes

I went and messed it up
I've gone and done it
I always hurt somebody when I fall in love
That's just how it goes
I went and messed it up again
I've gone and done it
I said it wouldn't happen again
That's how it always goes
I said it wouldn't happen again
It's how it always goes
I said it wouldn't happen again
