Things That Break lyrics

I was born a bull in a china cabinet

Drawn to the delicate like it's a magnet

Perfume bottles on a mirror tray

Tempered glass on a window pane

Timeless face on a pocket watch

Time is ticking

I leave it all in ruins

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing

I'm hard on things that matter

Hold a heart so tight it shatters

So I stay away from things that break

Can't make a man a promise

With the best of intentions

Drive two hundred miles on a rundown engine

Put a blanket underneath a hollow tree

When the wind blows hard it will fall on me

Stick around long enough and you will see

Time is ticking

I leave it all in ruins

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing

I'm hard on things that matter

Hold a heart so tight it shatters

So I stay away from things that break

Me, I don't ever wanna get too close

Or be held responsible

For all the pain that you can't see

Somebody once broke me

I leave it all in ruins

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing

I'm hard on things that matter

Hold a heart so tight it shatters

So I stay away from things that break
