I Am Trying to Break Your Heart

I am an American aquarium drinker

I assassin down the avenue

I'm hidin' out in the big city blinkin'

What was I thinkin' when I let go of you?Let's forget about the tongue-tied lightnin'

Let's undress just like cross-eyed strangers

This is not a joke so please stop smilin'

What was I thinkin' when I said it didn't hurt?I want to glide through those brown eyes dreamin'

Take it from the inside, baby hold on tight

You were so right when you said, "I've been drinkin'"

What was I thinkin' when we said good night?I wanna hold you in the Bible-black predawn

You're quite a quiet domino, bury me now

Take off your band-aid 'cause I don't believe in touchdowns

What was I thinkin' when we said hello?I'd always thought that if I held you tightly

You'd always love me like you did back then

Then I fell asleep in the city kept blinkin'

What was I thinkin' when I let you back in?I am trying to break your heart

I am trying to break your heart

But still I'd be lyin' if I said, it wasn't easy

I am trying to break your heartDisposable dixie-cup drinkin'

I assassin down the avenue

I'm hidin' out in the big city blinkin'

What was I thinkin' when I let go of you?Loves you

I'm the man who loves you
