Lyrics People Break - Eric Church

Starin' at the background, a heartland sky
Smoke from the mill stack turnin' that blue white
Right here was our first time on the hood of my car
Now it's just a spot where I wonder where you are

People break, people try
Things happen, people cry
Someone leaves, love dies
Someone changes their mind
Baby, I get it, I really do
But now I gotta go and do the hardest part
Break the news to a broken heart

The ice on Hawk Lake, this time of year
Broken and busted just like my bathroom mirror
So hard to see what lies there beneath
Shattered reflections like the pieces of me

People break, people try
Things happen, people cry
Someone leaves, love dies
Someone changes their mind
Baby, I get it, I really do
But now I gotta go and do the hardest part
Break the news to a broken heart

And where I'm goin' now, man, I don't really know
This truck felt hungry and she's chewin' up this road
Starin' through a windshield, same heartland sky
But it's a broken heartland tonight
It's a broken heartland tonight

Starin' at the background, a heartland sky
People break, people break
