Breaking

(album: New Surrender - 2008)

Do you memorize theatrical lines
That seem to lead them in
Play the role with a good girl heart
Hide the tangled webs within
Who was it that led you on,
And makes you want to hurt me so?
Who do you want to forget,
Who forgot you long ago?

Do you still feel him
Calling in the air tonight
Do you still feel it
Seems like you've done this before

You make breaking hearts look so easy
(Seems like you've done this before)
You've got breaking hearts all but down
(And you've done this, you've done this before)
You make stealing hearts look so easy
(Where is the girl I adore?)
You've got breaking up all but down
(And I can't love a thief anymore)

Do you collect the souls you've lost
In the top of your dresser drawer
Count the number of tears displaced
On lonely bedroom floors
A machine where your heart once was
Slowly takes the place of you
Only hold the memories now
Of a love I thought I knew

Do you still feel him
Calling in the air tonight
Do you still feel it
Seems like you've done this before

You make breaking hearts look so easy
(Seems like you've done this before)
You've got breaking hearts all but down
(And you've done this, you've done this before)
You make stealing hearts look so easy
(Where is the girl I adore?)
You've got breaking up all but down
(And I can't love a thief anymore)

You make breaking hearts look so easy
You've got breaking hearts all but down
You make breaking hearts look so easy
(Seems like you've done this before)
You've got breaking hearts all but down
(And you've done this, you've done this before)

The best you could hope to be is now just a bittersweet memory
And you make breaking hearts look so easy.
