Breaking Things Lyrics by Mark Powell

Breaking Things

2018

[Verse 1]
Me and that lone star, we fly the same
Left out a color all alone in the rain
My boots are faded, my pride is whipped
From a long stretch of heartache and love songs that I missed

[Chorus]
I've got a long history of breaking things
I ruin things I love
It's gettin' so hard for me to save some face
When you break it, you pay for it
Even when you're broken the same

[Verse 2]
Hard words and hard heads, they don't mix
It's a sledgehammer on a glass bridge
If I had a black box, I'd take it back
If it weren't the only thing left after a crash

[Chorus]
I've got a long history of breaking things
I ruin things I love
It's gettin' so hard for me to save some face
When you break it, you pay for it
Even when you're broken the same

[Bridge]
Call it bad luck
Or good intentions gone wrong
It's like I'm stuck holding a million tiny shards of a lifetime
Of broken hearts

[Chorus]
I've got a long history of breaking things
I ruin things I love
It's gettin' so hard for me to save some face
When you break it, you pay for it
Even when you're broken the same
When you break it, you pay for it
Even when you're broken the same
