Broken Teacup

Your shirt still hangs by the door

Like you might walk back in

There’s a ring mark on the table

From the cup you left at ten

I found her name in your phone

In the place you hid the truth

Now the same house feels чужд to me

Since I shared my heart with you

I kept your keys in the bowl

Kept your side of the bed

I kept on saying “it’s fine”

While the lie grew in my head

Now I see it so clear

What you took, what you spent

You didn’t just break my trust

You broke the room we lived in

You loved with a lockpick hand

You loved with a lockpick hand

Cut me open, left me standing

You loved with a lockpick hand

(lockpick hand)

I was yours in the dark

You were gone before the dawn

You loved with a lockpick hand

And now my faith is gone

I heard your laugh on the porch

When you said you’d been alone

But your coat smelled like her perfume

And I knew I was coming home

To a bed full of questions

And a silence I can’t hold

You made a mess of my name

Then you walked out cold

I kept the pictures on shelves

Like they meant something true

But every frame turned to glass

When I looked straight through you

Now I know what it was

Every promise was spent

You didn’t just leave a scar

You changed what love meant

You loved with a lockpick hand

You loved with a lockpick hand

Cut me open, left me standing

You loved with a lockpick hand

(lockpick hand)

I was yours in the dark

You were gone before the dawn

You loved with a lockpick hand

And now my faith is gone

Don’t say you were confused

Don’t say it slipped your mind

A thousand little choices

All laid out in a line

I won’t wear your damage

Like it’s mine to defend

I’m taking back my whole heart

Piece by piece again

You loved with a lockpick hand

You loved with a lockpick hand

Cut me open, left me standing

You loved with a lockpick hand

(lockpick hand)

I was yours in the dark

You were gone before the dawn

You loved with a lockpick hand

And now my faith is gone
