about

"Break My Heart" is the third single from Lapel's upcoming "Brutal Joy" EP, out in November 2023.

lyrics

Break my heart

I was a fool (he got into my head and into my head)
He got into my head to get me into his bed
Then I met you (didn’t want to believe, want to believe)
Didn’t want to believe you wanted me for me

So I shut down
I pushed you out
If I don’t let you in
Then tell me who wins

So if you’re gonna leave me, leave me breathless babe
And if you’re gonna love me love me all the way
I don’t wanna, don’t wanna live halfway so
Break my heart
If you’re gonna hurt me do it honestly
‘Cause I don’t wanna live in the in-between
So come a little, a little closer to me
Break my heart

I get so tired (always been told, always been told)
Always being told my body’s not my own
But in my desire (to shield myself, shield myself)
To shield myself I built a different cell

So I shut down
And I pushed you out
If I don’t let you in
Then tell me who wins (tell me who wins)

So if you’re gonna leave me, leave me breathless babe
And if you’re gonna love me love me all the way
I don’t wanna, don’t wanna live halfway so
Break my heart
If you’re gonna hurt me do it honestly
‘Cause I don’t wanna live in the in-between
So come a little, a little closer to me
Break my heart

I run through fireworks, sparks on my skin
I can’t tell the burning from the beauty
So I keep running, I keep running right
Right back in

So if you’re gonna leave me, leave me breathless babe
And if you’re gonna love me love me all the way
I don’t wanna live halfway
If you’re gonna hurt me do it honestly
‘Cause I don’t wanna live in the in-between
So come a little, a little closer to me
Break my heart

So if you’re gonna leave me, leave me breathless babe
And if you’re gonna love me love me all the way
I don’t wanna, don’t wanna live halfway so
Break my heart
If you’re gonna hurt me do it honestly
‘Cause I don’t wanna live in the in-between
So come a little, a little closer to me
Break my heart
