[Intro]
Every little heartache, every little mistake, and all the things I wish I never said
When I was wasted, when I was chasing memories I mostly now forget
[Verse 1]
I traveled light with songs to sing
I flew all around the world, but couldn't tell you where I've been
It was all the same and it was all a game
But now I don't wanna play
[Chorus]
So break my heart
Into a thousand parts
And let them go, bury my ghost
Down on the coast with an ocean view
Go on and break my heart
[Verse 2]
I know I wasn't perfect, I know that I deserved it
Whеn you finally got fed up with me
Always causing a big scenе, straight out of a movie
Where I literally chase you down the street
Saying, "Baby, come back, was it really that bad? Honey, this can't be how it ends"
As you're jumping in a car to go do cocaine in a bar
And I hated that there was nothing I could do
A sorry attempt at really loving you
So I guess what I'm trying to say is
Maybe the problem wasn't you
[Chorus]
So break my heart
Into a thousand parts
And let them go, bury my ghost
Down on the coast with an ocean view
Go on and break my heart
[Post-Chorus]
But remember the good parts
That I still hold like silver and gold
Singing Hallelujah and stumbling home
Go on and break my heart
Go on and break my heart
[Bridge]
I would have gone on fighting for the rest of my life
Too anxious to live, but too stubborn to die
[Outro]
Every little heartache, every little mistake, every crooked step along the way
I've carried them with me, the sharpest memories, but they're getting softer every day
