It hurts and I don't know why
Was it something I did along the ride in another life?
Is there something I missed?
My generation's up in smoke
We look like kids but feel like ghosts
Just try and try to feel alive
Ooh ooh ooh it's a tale as old as time
Ooh ooh ooh looking for something you just can't find
'Cause long ago one heart broke
Then broke a couple more
And before you know, it got too close
And the heart that broke was yours
But that's how it goes
'Cause hearts break like dominoes, -oes
Break like dominoes, -oes, they break like dominoes
It's hard to like myself when I don't know how to do it
I'm flying blind for all my life, try to stumble through it
There's no instructions here on earth
You gotta touch the stove to know it burns
But it's only fire, it'll be alright
Ooh ooh ooh it's a tale as old as time
Ooh ooh ooh looking for something you just can't find
'Cause long ago one heart broke
Then broke a couple more
And before you know, it got too close
And the heart that broke was yours
But that's how it goes
'Cause hearts break like dominoes, -oes
Break like dominoes, -oes, they break like dominoes
I fall, you fall, we all fall down
I fall, you fall down
I fall, you fall, we all fall down
I fall, you fall down
But that's how it goes
'Cause hearts break like dominoes, -oes
Break like dominoes, -oes, they break like dominoes
