lyrics

THE SOUND OF HEARTBREAK

(The sound of heartbreak)
All at once you notice
The magic’s worn away
It disappeared without a sound
You’ve seen it all before
Happening to someone else
Distant as another town

Cold words come down the phone
(and now)
And sirens start their singing
(all you hear is)
The sound of heartbreak
(the sound of heartbreak)
Accusations fill the air
(that sound)
Excuses tried and proven
The sound of heartbreak

You thought you were immune
You thought you’d get it right
But it fell apart before your very eyes
When you tried to change the course
Reality dropped in
Just to cut you down to size

Cold words come down the phone
(and now)
And sirens start their singing
(all you hear is)
The sound of heartbreak
(the sound of heartbreak)
Accusations fill the air
(that sound)
Excuses tried and proven
(fills your nights and days)
The sound of heartbreak
(with the sound of heartbreak)

Cold words come down the phone
And sirens start their singing
The sound of heartbreak
Accusations fill the air
Excuses tried and proven
(that sound)
The sound of heartbreak
(the sound of heartbreak)

Cold words come down the phone
And sirens start their singing
The sound of heartbreak
(it’s the sound of heartbreak)
Accusations fill the air
(it goes on and on and on and on and on and on)
Excuses tried and proven
The sound of heartbreak
(the sound of heartbreak)

Cold words come down the phone
(it rules your nights, it rules your dreams)
And sirens start their singing
The sound of heartbreak
Accusations fill the air
(what you gonna do to block it out?)
Excuses tried and proven
The sound of heartbreak

Yeah
