Break Me Open Lyrics


I break like a crystal cup
Into a million little pieces but I pick me up
Don't just stare at me, take care of me
Don't let 'em tell ya fucked up isn't fine
There's like a million kinds of crazy and I kind of like mine
I'm not a problem that needs solving
And you can't bleed what's already bled
And if you only knew the shit that rolls around in my head
You'd be a little more fragile when handling me
You see, I heal quickly
Do you break me open just to see if I still bleed?
Do you break me open just to see what's underneath?
Do you find in the way I never mind that you could never
Break me open, just you see, just you see.
You fight like stones and sticks
But I've never known a cut that I couldn't fix
These bruises make sweet music
And you want words but you want me dumb

Now you're playing catch with a loaded gun
You can't tell me how to write this one
No take backs, it's already said
And if you only knew the shit that rolls around in my head
You'd be a little more fragile when handling me
You see, I heal quickly
Do you break me open just to see if I still bleed?
Do you break me open just to see what's underneath?
Do you find in the way I never mind that you could never
Break me open, just you see, just you see.
You can't take what's mine- it's mine
You can't make me silent with violence
You shake your finger at me and expect I'll change
I might break like a crystal cup
Into a million pieces, but I'll pick me up
Don't just stare at me, take care of me
You can't kill what's already dead
And if you only knew the shit that rolls around in my head
You'd be a little more fragile when handling me
You see, I heal quickly
Do you break me open just to see if I still bleed?
Do you break me open just to see what's underneath?
Do you find in the way I never mind that you could never
Break me open, just you see, just you see
Just you see, just you see.

Anna Nalick is a platinum selling singer and songwriter from California. In addition to writing all of her own music, Anna has been writing for other artists since the age of 15.

Starting in 2005, Anna released her first studio produced album, entitled: “Wreck of the Day,” featuring the hit single “Breathe (2AM)” under the SonyMusic label. The song propelled to the top of the charts and sent Anna on a nearly four year tour around the world. Featuring her third hit single “Shine,” Anna and SonyMusic released “The Shine EP.” Both “Wreck of the Day” and “The Shine EP” can still be heard widely on radio and television today, with “Breathe” being featured twice on the hit television drama “Grey’s Anatomy.”

Wanting to pursue a musical style free of label influence, Anna decided to part ways with SonyMusic in 2010 and in 2011, released her first independently produced album: “Broken Doll & Odds & Ends.” Anna describes the album as: “mostly acoustic with haunting and unusual instrumentation. I wanted to release the songs I wrote while I was with Sony before I move on to all new material. I liked the songs too much to just leave them all behind. Now I’m ready to explore new territory.”

Utilizing the unique sounds of toy piano, sitar, glockenspiel, oud, mandocello and sweeping string arrangements, “Broken Doll & Odds & Ends” features a wide range of instruments, performed by a very talented collection of musicians. Anna’s unique storytelling ability and timeless sense of melody has gained even more notoriety with fans, selling over 30,000 copies during the album’s first month.

Presently, Anna is dedicating the majority of her time to writing for her next project. Unlike the acoustic feel of “Broken Doll & Odds & Ends,” Anna’s next album will be an electric collection of songs, featuring a full band and a bigger sound than previously produced.
