Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You left your blue jean jacket
Folded on the backseat
Front door slam
Said you’re tired of my habits
Tired of this small town
Tired of my band
I watched your taillights shrinking
In the rearview of my old Ford
Radio on
But I’m thinking
How you can feel this broke and still want more
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep scrolling through your pictures
Like they’re gonna talk me down
Every memory a fixture
In a house we just burned down
[Chorus]
Breakup
Down
Yeah I’m breaking
Down
Screaming your name on an empty road
Heart on fire in a thundercloud
Breakup
Down
From the sky to the cold hard ground
Thought we were a long ride
Forever kind of song
Guess I only get to sing the broken part now
(oh, I’m breaking down)
[Verse 2]
Your coffee cup’s still waiting
Ring of you on my nightstand
All your notes on the fridge door
Spelling out the man I tried to be
But never am
Friends say “boy
You’ll be better”
They’re already swiping on my phone
But your ghost in that red sweater
Keeps dancing in my kitchen when I’m alone
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep talking to the ceiling
Like it’s gonna answer back
Every crack in the paint keeps revealing
All the love lines we can’t patch
[Chorus]
Breakup
Down
Yeah I’m breaking
Down
Screaming your name on an empty road
Heart on fire in a thundercloud
Breakup
Down
From the sky to the cold hard ground
Thought we were a long ride
Forever kind of song
Guess I only get to sing the broken part now
(oh, I’m breaking down)
[Bridge]
Maybe you’re out there laughing
At some dive bar I don’t know
I’m here counting every crack in the mattress
Like they’re footsteps you might follow home
If sorry was enough
You’d be here
Kicking boots off by my door
But it’s just me and this cheap beer
And a freedom I don’t want anymore
[Chorus]
Breakup
Down
Yeah I’m breaking
Down
Screaming your name on an empty road
Heart on fire in a thundercloud
Breakup
Down
From the sky to the cold hard ground
Thought we were a long ride
Forever kind of song
Guess I only get to sing the broken part now
Breakup
Down
Yeah I’m breaking
Down
Til your name ain’t the only sound
(spinning me around)
