Lyrics

This town is only going to break your heart
This window, this house, every crumbling part
Oh this town, this town, is going to break your heart

Morning will come looking for a fight
And your heart will flicker like a drugstore light

It was a lucky punch that caught you in the eye
It left you so much older now but left no reasons why

When I was young I thought about it always
When my game was done, would you find me in the hallways
of this house, on this street

This town is only going to break your heart
Growing up is the hardest part
Oh this town, this town, is going to break your heart

I took what was not given me, I've bloodied up my nose
I've fallen out of windows and I've dirtied up my clothes

And when my evening comes, and I'm gripped within it's throes
Will my mind still be restless from the debt that it owes

I'm older now and when I run my hands along your walls
They remind me how all the things I've left I've kept closest of all
closest of all

You were leaning on that street light
Asking me if we would turn out alright

This town is only going to break your heart
You will find at the end, you'll be back at the start
Oh this town, this town, is going to break your heart

This town, this town, is going to break your heart
