Heartbreak Lover

(album: Mallory Knox - 2019)

Hey, bright eyes
Could you look over at me sometime?
I wanted to ask you

If you were afraid of the living dead
'Cause I must be a ghost the way you look through me
I swear, all those other boys you miss
Were only built to break you
I could fix you up again

'Cause love isn't beautiful
She's just a heartbreak lover
I hate that I love how she walks away
'Cause she gets hurt all the time
Too many heartbreak lovers
Just like those other times again
She let the world win

You're swaying around in your ripped up jeans
You're taught how to live from your magazines
And it's crazy how different our lives can be
But we can align them, I still wanna ask you

If you were afraid of the living dead
'Cause I must be a ghost the way you look through me
I swear, all those other boys you miss
Were only built to break you
But I could fix you up again

'Cause love isn't beautiful
She's just a heartbreak lover
I hate that I love how she walks away
'Cause she gets hurt all the time
Too many heartbreak lovers
Just like those other times again
She let the world win

Hey now bright eyes
The sun shines when you smile
Hum your lullaby
And float off through the night

I feel like the freak with the girl next door
But I could be the one that you've been waiting for
I swear, all those boys you adore
Were only built to break your heart

'Cause love isn't beautiful
She's just a heartbreak lover
I hate that I love how she walks away
'Cause she gets hurt all the time
Too many heartbreak lovers
Just like those other times again
She let the world win

Hey now bright eyes
She's just a heartbreak lover
Hey now bright eyes
Hey now bright eyes
She's just a heartbreak lover
Hey now bright eyes
