Break the Girl

florence road

Cold days you go away

In search of finding something

To keep alive the flame

Then she came

Pocketful of rain

Said pick up the embers

But you have to hide the pain

 

If you can't take it back

Why'd you do her like that?

 

You break the girl

And take the pearl

Like it's good for nothing

You say you love

But then you don't show her any of it

You crossed the line

She walked the bridge

And now you're leaving

You break the girl

And take the pearl

Like she's good for nothing

 

Caught up in the hems

Said I was your baby

But nothing ever gave

Frayed at the ends

Still not making sense

I'm crying at a movie

When I should feel something else

 

If you can't take it back

Why'd you do me like that?

 

You break the girl

And take the pearl

Like it's good for nothing

You say you love

But then you don't show her any of it

You crossed the line

She walked the bridge

And now you're leaving

You break the girl

And take the pearl

Like she's good for nothing

 

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la

Why break the girl?

She's just a girl

Why break the girl, no

She's just a girl

Why break the girl

 

Mother of pearl, why did you turn?

You're tryna teach something that you will never learn

 

You crossed the line

She walked the bridge

And now you're leaving

You break the girl

And take the pearl

Like she's good for nothing

Like she's good for nothing

 

Ready?

Okay

 

 

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

(Break the girl) La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

(Break the girl) La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

(Break the girl) La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

(Break the girl) La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
