I tried to wear your damage,
Tried to copy how you lie.
Told myself I’d match your habits,
Let my morals fucking die.
But every time I crossed that line
My stomach turned, my throat got tight—
Guess my heart don’t do the things
Yours somehow sleeps through at night.
Pre-Chorus
You can walk away from promises
Like they’re clothes you never liked.
I keep stitching up the pieces
Of the shit you tore inside.
Chorus
’Cause I don’t break like you.
Can’t hurt the way you do.
I’m not built to kiss a stranger
Just to feel a point proved.
I can’t fake what’s real,
Can’t unlove what I feel—
God knows I tried to play your game,
But my heart won’t let me lose.
No, I don’t break like you.
Verse 2
I practiced being heartless,
Guess I failed that lesson too.
Tried to numb myself with chaos,
But it only made me bruise.
And you act like it’s survival,
But it’s just the way you hide—
I can’t turn love into weaponry
No matter how you tried.
Pre-Chorus
You disappear in silence
Like the truth don’t weigh a thing.
But every lie sits heavy
When it’s burning under skin.
Chorus
’Cause I don’t break like you.
Can’t hurt the way you do.
I’m not built to kiss a stranger
Just to feel a point proved.
I can’t fake what’s real,
Can’t unlove what I feel—
Yeah, I tried to be a cheater
Just to understand your moves,
But I don’t break like you.
Bridge
And maybe that’s the reason
You keep falling through my hands—
You’re all sharp edges, I’m all bleeding,
Still I loved you where you stand.
But I can’t keep becoming
What your damage puts me through—
If losing me don’t change you,
Maybe nothing ever will.
Final Chorus
’Cause I don’t break like you.
I don’t bend just to be used.
Yeah, I tried to copy heartbreak,
But it isn’t in my wounds.
I can’t fake what’s real,
Can’t unlove what I feel—
I’m the one thing you couldn’t ruin,
Even when you wanted to.
No, I don’t break like you.
