Heartbreak Syndrome Songtext
von Judah & the Lion

Keep driving around east of our downtown
Every black Jeep that I see is making me turn around
And I′m trying to let you go, but I don't know how
I never liked to be alone with the ghost in our house

And I tried to let you know that you don′t really need the space
You thought that I would smile as I watched you walk away
And all our friends try to get me to explain
I just want to hold her close, tell her everything will be okay

I just want to hold her close

I'm in denial, it's been a while
Since you checked in with me
You missed my birthday, I put on a strong face
Why am I your enemy?


I′m at Café Roze by myself three nights a week
And I′m trying not to text you to follow your boundaries
Thought that I would be the one you'd always need
You don′t look me in the eyes as I cry on my knees

You don't look me in the eyes as I cry

I′m in denial, it's been a while
Since you checked in with me
You missed my birthday, I heard you were out late
Why am I your enemy?

I got diagnosed with heartbreak syndrome
Yes, this is killing me
Doc said it′s probably best to try and manage the stress
'Cause I can't let you leave, first

Are you driving around east of our downtown?
Every corner you see is going to turn around
Just keep wonderin′ wonder why we got married or if I′ll love again
