Lyrics

I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face
That heartbreak

Is it about control?
Tell me, I wanna know
Have you been burned before
On some other chariot?
I’ll make the cross-town run
Faster than anyone
Let the reigns take themselves
And fire like a loaded gun

Faster, faster, free
Coming close to me

I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face
That heartbreak (He broke your heart)
You only like the bad boys (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face (He broke your heart)
I can be that new toy (He broke your heart)
I can be that heartbreak

He broke your heart again
It washed up in the city of sin, singing

Washed up in the city of sin, singing
Washed up in the city of sin, singing

Is it about control
Or are you just a restless soul?
Burned by some former king
Some other small-town scheme
That's not my kind of love
I race for fame and fun
The secret is when to know
When to let it go
Faster, faster, free
Coming close to me

I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face
That heartbreak (He broke your heart)
You only like the bad boys (He broke your heart)
I can see it on your pretty face (He broke your heart)
I can be that new toy (He broke your heart)
I can be that heartbreak

He broke your heart again
It washed up in the city of sin, singing

Washed up in the city of sin, singing
