Lyrics Barenaked Ladies – Break Your Heart

The bravest thing I’ve ever done
Was to run away and hide
But not this time, not this time
And the weakest thing I’ve ever done

And if I always seem distracted
Like my minds somewhere else
That’s because it’s true, yes it’s true
it’s this stupid pride that makes me feel
Like I have to follow through
Even half-assedly, loving you
Why must I always speak in terms of cowardice?
When I guess I should have just come out and told you right from the start
Why must I always tell you all I want is this?
I guess ’cause I didn’t want to break your heart

And you said
What’d you think that I was gonna do,
Curl up and die just because of you?
I’m not that weak, you know
What’d you think that I was gonna do,
Try to make you love me as much as I love you?
How could you be so low?
You arrogant man,
What do you think that I am?
My heart will be fine

And now I’m over you, I’ll be OK,
and that I’ve got what I want,
and that’s rid of you
Bye
And it’s not ’cause I’ll be missing you
That makes me fall apart
It’s just that I didn’t mean to break
No I didn’t mean to break
No I didn’t mean to break
Your heart
