[Verse 1]
Cigarettes in the ashtray
Sittin' on the porch
Two empty bottles of cabernet
From the night before
Couple of texts I wish I hadn't sent
But at the time
Had a good buzz and it felt innocent

[Chorus]
Movin' on is messy
It ain't always gonna be a clean break and it's okay
Whatever it takes these days
'Cause heartbreak isn't sexy
And there ain't no wearin' it well, goin' through hell
So give yourself some grace
Movin' on is messy

[Verse 2]
Little black dress in the bathroom
From last Friday night
I thought I was ready, it was too soon
God, I wasn't right
Mascara stain on pillowcases
Can't stop my mind
From goin' back to broken places
[Chorus]
Yeah, movin' on is messy
It ain't always gonna be a clean break and it's okay
Whatever it takes these days
'Cause heartbreak isn't sexy
And there ain't no wearin' it well, goin' through hell
So give yourself some grace
Yeah, movin' on is messy

[Bridge]
And, oh, you're fine 'til you're fallin' apart
Over it, back to the start
It ain't on your mind 'til you're replayin' every memory

[Chorus]
Yeah, movin' on is messy
It ain't always gonna be a clean break and it's okay
Whatever it takes these days
'Cause heartbreak isn't sexy
And there ain't no wearin' it well, goin' through hell
So give yourself some grace
Yeah, movin' on is messy
Movin' on is messy, yeah
Movin' on is messy, yeah
Oh, it's messy
