Lyrics

Don't you wanna go for a ride
Just keep your hands inside
And make the most out of life
Now don't you take it for granted

Life is like a mean machine
It made a mess outta me
It left me caught between
Like an angry dream I was stranded
I was stranded, eh eh-ed

And I'm steady but I'm starting to shake
And I don't know how much more I can take

Well this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now you feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks

Don't you wanna go for a ride?
Down to the other side
Feels so good you could cry
Now won't you do what I told you?
I remember when you used to be shy
Yeah, once we were so fine you and i
Why you gotta make it so hard on me
Yeah its hard on me

And I'm sorry but it's not a mistake (not a mistake)
And I'm running but you're getting away

Well this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now, you feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks, yeah
This is how a heart breaks

You're not the best thing that I knew
Never was never cared too much for all this hanging around
It's just the same thing all the time
Never get what I want, never get too close to the end of the line
You're just the same thing that I knew
Back before the time when I was running from you

[Music break]

Chorus:
Well this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now, you feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks

Yeah this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now, you feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks (oh oh oh oh, ah yeah, oh oh oh oh)
This is how a heart breaks (oh oh oh oh, ah yeah, oh oh oh oh)
(This is it yeah yeah this is it, oh)
This is how a heart breaks (oh oh oh oh, ah yeah, oh oh oh oh)
(Can't take it, can't take it, can't take it, can't take it)
This is how a heart breaks (can't take it no more)(oh oh oh oh)
(Ah yeah ah yeah ah yeah) (oh oh oh oh, ah yeah, oh oh oh oh)
This is how a heart breaks
(I cant take it, I cant take it, I cant take it, oh no)
This is how a heart breaks (ohhhh)
This is how a heart breaks
This is how a heart breaks
