You grew accustomed to the smell of me walking by
You loved the phantom breeze
And the green in my eyes
I always swore to know when it's the time
To go
I felt your cold touch and knew within a glance
That you were never mine
But I was okay with that
I bought new perfume
And took the long way home
I didn't mean to break you down
I didn't want to see you shatter
But I was addicted to the light
Glistening on the floor
No, I didn't hold out for a moment
No, I didn't need a revelation
I wanted to dance in the light with my tallest shoes
Dance on the ground where I stood with you
Heartbreak Girl and there's her muse
Dance all alone
You got an ego bruise
I saw the smoke from here
I tried to be forward
I guess that I wasn't clear
I own up to it all my hand on the Bible
But
You won't remember me ten years from now
You walk down my street
I'm just a face in the crowd
N-No one that you know now
I didn't mean to break you down
I didn't want to see you shatter
But I was addicted to the light
Glistening on the floor
No I didn't hold out for a moment
No I didn't need a revelation
I wanted to dance in the light with my tallest shoes
Dance on the ground where I stood with you
Heartbreak Girl and there's her muse
Dance all alone
I didn't mean to break you down
I didn't want to see you shatter
But I was addicted to the light
Glistening on the floor
I have these words all written down
I have a notion of what does matter
But I'm just an addict with a pen
I crave things that I can mend
I saw broken glass and then
A brand new song
I didn't hold out for a moment
No, I didn't need a revelation
I wanted to dance in the light with my tallest shoes
Dance on the ground where I stood with you
There goes Heartbreak Girl and you're her muse
Dance all alone
You're her, You're her muse
Yeah you're her muse.
