Fool you made the girl fall in love

she thought you spoke things you mean

she hears your voice making plans

and sees your face in her hands

You don't wanna see somebody beg

as you feel her heart surrender

you begin to fall

How do you say that something's through
Ab C#
when it never even started
C#/C Bbm C#
at least not for you
Ab
You breathe her air and you leave

you keep your mind on yourself

and lie the glass on the shelf

After the heavenly speech

your body throws holy heat

the angels sing when our eyes meet

I just wanted to make you feel good

just wanted you near

it never should have started

our lives have so many doors

he handled me like glass

and it hurts but it's what I deserve

because I should have been more careful

with the others that I handled

I should have been more

and knowing this I know

that he'll get his

but I don't want the man to suffer

oh not the way I am

because deep down I know that he's glass too

but it really doesn't matter

until it's happening to you
C# Eb Ab Ab/G F#
everybody Breaks everybody breaks
C# Ab
sometimes
