Good Egg Heartbreak

Lyrics

Verse 1
M
I been moving through a dark haze
Trying to face the road I chose
Every step feels heavy lately
Like I’m walking with my eyes closed
Trying to catch a brighter side
But it keeps slipping off my hand
Feeling sad and all alone
In a life I don’t understand

F
I got that lump up in my throat
But the tears won’t hit the ground
I hold it in, I hold it in
Till the silence gets too loud
I keep asking if I’m enough
While the mirror won’t look back
I’m still standing in the fire
But I don’t know where I’m at

Pre-Chorus
M
If I fall, let me fall slow
F
If I breathe, let me breathe right
M
If this night keeps pulling on me
F
Pull me toward the light

Chorus
M + F
I’m a good egg and a heartbreak
Still standing in the fight
I’m a good egg and a heartbreak
Trying to make it through the night
I wanna cry, but nothing comes
I wanna sleep and shut it down
I’m a good egg and a heartbreak
Still holding steady now
(good egg and a heartbreak)

Verse 2
F
I’m sick of feeling hollow
Sick of wearing this brave face
Sick of counting every burden
Like it’s proof I’m out of place
I keep saying I’m okay
Like a prayer I barely know
But the dark keeps on returning
When the room gets soft and low

M
I got boots by the back door
And a name I’m scared to wear
Got a future in my pocket
And a tired, broken stare
Trying not to drown my own mind
Trying not to let it win
If hope is just a thin thread
I’m still hanging by it, friend

Bridge
M
I don’t need a perfect answer
F
I just need a hand to hold
M
I don’t need to be unbroken
F
I just need to be told

M + F
You’re enough
You’re enough
Even here, even now
You’re enough
You’re enough
Somehow, someway, somehow

Final Chorus
M + F
I’m a good egg and a heartbreak
Still standing in the fight
I’m a good egg and a heartbreak
Trying to make it through the night
I wanna cry, but nothing comes
I wanna sleep and shut it down
I’m a good egg and a heartbreak
Still holding steady now
I’m a good egg and a heartbreak
And I’m still here somehow
(good egg and a heartbreak)
