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.
