Park the car
Said you had a bad sleep, but it's gonna get worse
And I stand in line
As I watch you slide into the booth that we called our own
And I'm about to start a fire
In my own backyard
And they don't
Tell you how bad it'd hurt to break a heart like hers
You put the coffee down
Ask if I'm alright guess it's gonna be now
Sorry, I delayed
I just wanted to store that smile in my mind
Before I lit a match to start a fire
In my own backyard
And they don't
Tell you how bad it hurts to break a heart like hers
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Try to say the words
I rehearsed all night while you fell asleep
I didn't feel
The right ones came out, saw you freeze when I started to speak
'Cause I was lighting up a fire
In your own backyard
But they didn't
Tell me how bad it'd hurt to break a heart like hers
They say you'll break up and in a little while
You won't remember the things we wanted
And then you wake up and she's fading
But you still remember the way she loved you
(They say you'll break up and in a little while)
(You won't remember the things we wanted)
(And then you wake up and she's fading)
(But you still remember the way she loved you)
I'm about to start a fire
In my own backyard
And they don't
Tell you how bad it'd hurt to break a heart like hers
