People Break

Starin' 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 and 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 goin' now, man, I don't really know

This truck felt hungry and she's chewin' up this road

Starin' through a windshield, same heartland sky

But it's a broken heartland tonight

It's a broken heartland tonight

Starin' at the background, a heartland sky

People break, people break
