Cold days, you go away In search of finding something To keep alive the flame Then she came, pocketful of rain Said: Pick up the embers But you have to hide the pain If you can't take it back Why'd you do her like that? You break the girl and take the pearl Like it's good for nothing You say you love, but then you don't show her any of it You crossed the line, she walked the bridge And now you're leaving You break the girl and take the pearl Like she's good for nothing Caught up in the hems, said I was your baby But nothing ever gave, frayed at the ends Still not making sense, I'm crying at a movie When I should feel something else If you can't take it back Why'd you do me like that? You break the girl and take the pearl Like it's good for nothing You say you love, but then you don't show her any of it You crossed the line, she walked the bridge And now you're leaving You break the girl and take the pearl Like she's good for nothing Why break the girl? She's just a girl Why break the girl, no She's just a girl Why break the girl? Mother of pearl, why did you turn? You're tryna teach something that you will never learn You crossed the line, she walked the bridge And now you're leaving You break the girl and take the pearl Like she's good for nothing Like she's good for nothing Ready? Okay La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la Break the girl (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la) Break the girl (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la) Break the girl (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la) Break the girl (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
