Well I heard you must have missed her
'cause I ran into your sister and she told me that things hadn't gone to plan
that you were moving out at dawn for the place where you were born
and returning here some shadow of a man
She said it's harder now to take control
some unnerving mission has brought you near to home
for nothing you'd need for no one to hold
you know it's harder now to break your stupid heart
Through the ferocity of fights and the tempestuous of nights
you greet me with a face that looks like hell
and we've nothing left to offer but whatever's in the coffers
and these days they are running low as well
You say it's harder now to take control
some unnerving mission has brought you near to home
for nothing you'd need, for no one to hold
You say it's harder now to break your heart
you say that you're different but that won't get you far
I know who you know, and they're not who you are
you know it's harder now to break your stupid heart
it's harder now to break your stupid heart
And when the lights come up
and the silence starts
sink another whiskey and it's clawing at your heart
while lovers hit the pillow and others fall apart
you're so hard, you know it's harder now to take control
some unnerving mission has bought you near to home
for nothing you'd need for no one to hold
You say it's harder now to break your heart
you say that your different but that won't get you far
I know who you know and they're not who you are
you know it's harder now to break your stupid heart
it's harder now to break your stupid heart
