I broke a mirror Trying to reflect On the lies you tried To hide behind My honesty has served me well ‘cause even if I go to hell At least I wasn’t lying to myself And I’m not sorry for my choices Darlin’, I’m sorry for you For all the promises you made That never followed through I’m out of bars You’re out of line Signals crossed, I won’t apologize We’re missing persons We’re wasting time I’m at the end of my rope You’re not on the line And you’ll hide behind the lies you sell them ‘Cause secrets do make friends if you don’t tell them I broke a mirror I broke a mirror You broke a promise You broke a promise

A pen that bursts into my hand We are strangers in familiar land In territory not explored I need less but I ask for more A trist I am left listless ‘Cause I break hearts A trist I am left listless ‘Cause I break, I break hearts Accruing debt on borrowed time A broken pen writing broken rhymes By a broken girl who’s biding time With stray cats who don’t have a dime A trist I am left listless ‘Cause I break hearts A trist I am left listless ‘Cause I break, I break hearts Ink on my fingers A kiss that lingers Is this a mistake? Or the inevitable? A trist I am left listless ‘Cause I break hearts A trist I am left listless ‘Cause I break, I break hearts

iBreak falls 03:53
Did you notice? Did you notice? I questioned trust and fell But, darlin’, I caught myself When I was tired as hell You put me back on your shelf Did you notice? Did you notice me falling? We’re hanging on the edge I’m the one you can’t protect We made a leap We took a fall I made the call I broke our fall Did you notice? Did you notice? Did you notice me falling? We could take this at a snail’s pace We could fall so from grace We could take our precious time We could find the bottom line Did you notice? Did you notice? Did you notice? Did you know? Notice me falling

iBreak ties 02:48
You don’t seem so bad, boy She’s just not your type Take me hand, we’ll dance tonight Under pretty lights You are no stranger Present no danger I met the monster behind the man Kiss me in the alley Walk me to the car Show me your record collection This connection, too far You are mere mortal You wake up feeling horrible I met the monster Do you feed the same lines? Do you tell the same lies? Do you break the same ties? Do you even think twice? If I sit and play nice Would you give up your vice? Give up your vice? You are mere mortal You wake up feeling horrible I met the monster I met the monster Behind the man

iBreak plans 03:34
Cracked screen, old machine Memory will have to suffice Press repeat and I hit delete I should not have rolled the dice I did not protect you I could not protect you Picking locks and ticking clocks You were minute hands that held the key But now you’re showing tells Let’s trade cells Mine for yours and yours for mine I did not protect you I could not protect you I did not protect you I could not protect you I held your hand and we made a plan We spoke of reasons to believe And when I leave you say “godspeed” I did not protect you I could not protect you

Oh no! Not me! Not me and technology! Oh please, not me! Not friends with technology I smash it like the patriarchy I drop it to the ground I’m climbing trees Down with technology Whiskey fingers, crooked teeth I fucking miss my iPhone 3 Oh iOS, upgrade my common sense! So please don’t hand your phone to me I know it will stop working I’ll shatter the screen No touch acknowledging Whiskey fingers, crooked teeth I fucking miss my iPhone 3 Whiskey fingers, crooked teeth I switched the signals sent to me Steve Jobs reserved a special place in hell for me ‘Cause I break iPhones I break I break
