People Break

Staring at the background, a heartland sky Smoke from the mill stack turnin' that blue white Right here was our first time on the hood of my car Now, it's just a spot where I wonder where you are People break, people try Things happen, people cry Someone leaves, love dies Someone changes their mind Baby, I get it I really do But now I gotta go do the hardest part Break the news to a broken heart The ice on Hawk Lake this time of year Broken and busted just like my bathroom mirror So hard to see what lies there beneath Shattered reflections like the pieces of me People break, people try Things happen, people cry Someone leaves, love dies Someone changes their mind Baby, I get it I really do But now I gotta go and do the hardest part Break the news to a broken heart And where I'm going now man, I don't really know This truck felt hungry and she's chewing up this road Staring through the windshield same heartland sky But it's a broken heartland tonight It's a broken heartland tonight Staring at the background, a heartland sky People break, people break --- People Break - Eric Church
