Rolling through the canyon blasting "heartbreaker"

I see your famous face right next to me

We smile at each other

Cuz we know we know each other

But damn if i'm gonna talk to you again

I always thought that you were funny

I always thought we could be friends

But the way you treated her in the end

All the horses and all the men

Couldn't bring her back again

And we tried so hard

But couldn't save her day

All the millions and the billions

Of stars that shine into her eyes

Were barely bright enough to light her way

So she covered herself in sorrow and shame

And smoke and mirrors and things

And fake love, angry love, bad love and sad love

And damn if i didn't almost do the same

And now sometimes i think i see her

I can almost hear her cry

I hear those chillin words

She chose to say goodbye

All the horses and all the men

Couldn't bring her back again

And we tried so hard

But couldn't save her day

All the millions and the billions

Of stars that shine into her eyes

Were barely bright enough to light her way

He was predictable, cliche and cruel to you

He made it ugly and made it high school

He said i love you

I need you

I want you

I'll feed you

I get you

I got you

I'll catch you

And i'll keep you

My sweet and you will never be sad again

He said, "my sweet, you will never be sad again"

And all the horses and all the men

Couldn't bring her back again

And we tried so hard

But couldn't save her day

All the millions and the billions

Of stars that shine into her eyes

I swear sometimes i can almost hear her say:

We're just bones and a name

We all go out the way we came

So don't you try to tell me that love is all we need.
