"To Break A Good Man" lyrics

"To Break A Good Man"

We built a love damn near 10 miles high
You slipped away like a thief in the night
Is it desperate to call, should I leave on a light?
At least you left all the good whiskey and wine

Lay me to waste, let me rot in the ground
I'm no use to no one when you're not around
I'm halfway to hell here and too drunk to stand
There's more than one way to break a good man

Home for the weekend, like you'll never leave
Back in this bed, like an old memory
You say you feel guilt, and this can't be a thing
Then you bring down a hammer, and show me a ring

Lay me to waste, let me rot in the ground
I'm no use to no one without you around
Tear out my heart, babe, like only you can
There's more than one way to break a good man

Baby you know if I don't let you in
You're gonna burn down this fortress and use me again
Set me on fire and don't give a damn
There's more than one way to break a good man
More than one way to break a good man

Lay me to waste, let me rot in the ground
I'm no use to no one without you around
Drag me along like you still got a chance
There's more than one way to break a good man
Yeah there's more than one way to break a good man
