Wrecking Ball lyrics

I'm alone, wandering in your space.

Waiting for a sign of life.

Looking so out of place.

Then you whisper to me,

'It doesn't matter what you say'.

I feel the weight against the wind,

the demolition of me caving in.

And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball.

While you're building up and breaking down my wall.

You push and pull, and give and take,

and through it all, I gravitate to you.

I'm a fool, a mechanical tool for you,

'cause you've got all the switches

and levers to blow my cool.

And when you know I'm broken,

that's when you come shining through.

You set me up to knock me down

and leave my shattered pieces on the ground.

And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball.

(I'm not ready to break...)

While you're building up and breaking down my wall.

You push and pull, and give and take,

and through it all, I gravitate to you... oh.

You set me up to knock me down

and leave my shattered pieces on the ground.

And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball.

(I'm not ready to break...)

While you're building up and breaking down my wall.

You push and pull, and give and take,

and through it all, I gravitate to you.
