Seeing the pain behind those eyes
It's colder than the snow in December skies
Too far gone, can't you see?
You keep wishing they're someone that they'll never be

You know it's hot like a fire
But it's gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
When the flames get higher
Oh, you're gonna learn

Darling, you can't break a broken heart
It'll spit you and leave you in the dark
Careful, watch your step, don't fall too hard
It'll drag you through the dirt until it tears you apart
Go through Hell and back, leave you on your knees
Cry for a soul that can't feel a damn thing
You can't break a broken heart
You can't break a broken heart

Ain't no right what's been wrong
Can't fight for a love if you're the only one
Don't fool yourself, it's make-believe
To keep wishing they're someone that they'll never be

You know it's hot like a fire
But it's gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
When the flames get higher
Oh, you're gonna learn

Darling, you can't break a broken heart
It'll spit you and leave you in the dark
Careful, watch your step, don't fall too hard
It'll drag you through the dirt until it tears you apart
Go through Hell and back, leave you on your knees
Cry for a soul that can't feel a damn thing
You can't break a broken heart

Run, run, run, baby
Run like Hell, 'cause it ain't love
Gotta save yourself
Run, run, run, baby
Run like Hell, 'cause it ain't love
Gotta save yourself

Darling, you can't break a broken heart
You can't break a broken heart
You can't break a broken heart
Break a broken heart
