[Verse]
I built my house on shifting sand
Tried to hold the waves with my hands
The tide laughed back
Said you don't stand a chance
Was it love or just a dance
[Prechorus]
You held my heart like a grenade
Pulled the pin and walked away
[Chorus]
Break my heart but don't leave it hollow
Tear it apart but let the echoes follow
If you're gonna hurt me make it art
Break my heart break my heart
[Verse 2]
I saw the storm before it came
Your eyes a thundercloud of pain
I ran but you outran the rain
Your love's a bruise I can't explain
[Prechorus]
You lit a fire then let it fade
Ashes falling in the shade
[Chorus]
Break my heart but don't leave it hollow
Tear it apart but let the echoes follow
If you're gonna hurt me make it art
Break my heart break my heart
