[Verse 1]
You heavy hitter
When you cried on the sky, you made it glitter
The moon in your eye, you were childlike
But you didn't care
So now you scream it
Saying, "This is goodbye," but you don't mean it
Always calling your bluff, why believe it?
There isn't the time
[Pre-Chorus]
But people like us think we've got all the time in the world
[Chorus]
Let your heart break, kid, let your heart break, kid
Till you're feeling it, let your heart break, kid
Oh, you nеver thought they'd leavе you, but they did
Now everybody calls you the heartbreak kid
And you can't believe they really called it quits
And you never thought that you would be the heartbreak kid
[Verse 2]
You got undressed
You stepped into the fire out of protest
Now everything burns and you blew it
It was right on your lips
So now you're waiting
It's a function of time, oscillating
You've got nowhere to go when you're growing
The road never ends
[Pre-Chorus]
People like us think we've got all the time in the world
[Chorus]
Let your heart break, kid, let your heart break, kid
Till you're feeling it, let your heart break, kid
Oh, you never thought they'd leave you, but they did
Now everybody calls you the heartbreak kid
And you can't believe they really called it quits
And you never thought that you would be the heartbreak kid
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
People like us think we've got all the time in the world
But we ain't got all the time in the world
[Chorus]
Let your heart break, kid, let your heart break, kid
Till you're feeling it, let your heart break, kid
Oh, you never thought they'd leave you, but they did
Now everybody calls you the heartbreak kid
And you can't believe they really called it quits
And you never thought that you would be the heartbreak kid
