Things That Break Lyrics

I was born a fool 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'll leave it all in ruins
Cause I don't know what I'm doin'
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 200 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 and you will see
Time is ticking

I'll leave it all in ruins
Cause I don't know what I'm doin'
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'll leave it all in ruins
Cause I don't know what I'm doin'
I'm hard on things that matter
Hold a heart so tight it shatters
So I stay away from things that break
