[Verse 1] There's a fault in my structure
It's always you and never me
I threw the blame and it shattered
And now there's broken glass praying to be healed
You struck a chord and I listened
You damn near broke all the strings
When you get close, I get distant
Instead I'll drive away to a place surreal
And tell me how that feels

[Chorus] Took the brake pads out the car
And I flew
Smashed this window in my heart
And I blamed you
This anger's taking me apart
Explosive truths
Except this time I went too far
And I hurt you
I wish I could take it back right now

[Verse 2] Where's that smile when it matters?
Where was I when you called?
I shot the blame and it scattered
Now there's bullet holes spread across the walls
I took the shape of a letter
Slipped myself underneath your door
In this red room we develop
An understanding of all our wrongs
Now can we move along?

[Chorus] Took the brake pads out the car
And I flew
Smashed this window in my heart
And I blamed you
This anger's taking me apart
Explosive truths
Except this time I went too far
And I hurt you
I wish I could take it back right now
