The Breaker Lyrics

I'd like to call you up right now and see how you're doin'
But I don't wanna hurt you anymore so I'll leave you alone
I can tell by the look on your face you didn't see it comin'
I was tryin' to do what's best but damn if it don't feel wrong

And I shot the stars out of your sky
Took the love right from your eyes
And I did it all knowing you thought
I was the hero of your heart
But I turned out to be
The breaker

I wish I could give you what you needed
But you can't tell a heart how to feel, but I've tried to
And I made you a promise with no way to keep it
But what kills me the most, I'd still do anything for you

I shot the stars out of your sky
Took the love right from your eyes
And I did it all knowing you thought,
I was the hero of your heart
But I'll forever be breaker

I shot the stars out of your sky
Took the love right from your eyes
And I did it all knowing you thought,
I Was the hero of your heart
But I'll forever be breaker
