Break So Easy

from True Crime by Ruby Rae

/

lyrics

Race to see what will kill me first
kind of bet no one wants to win
Packed my things in plastic bags I got from the front desk
But they break so easy

No, I don't want to talk on the phone
Every time I start to tell the truth
My voice gets caught behind my throat
And it breaks so easy

You could never be a normal person
I can't find the cash after the show
9am and you get drunk before the radio
Break so easy

Nothing now can keep me in my place
Not the cheap sunglasses you've got on your face
You were always in a different state
Anyway

Funny I think about that record player
I bought for us when things seemed brighter
Heard you sold it to a friend the day you moved away
And it breaks so easy

Grit my teeth whenever I remember
All the ways you me feel so small
Keep me up all night, slamming the door against the wall
And it breaks so easy

Nothing now can keep me in this place
Not the rusted razors that you drag down your face
You were always in a different state
Now I've packed my things
