These thoughts are ridiculous, there's nothing to hold Why should I keep on searching, when the trace has gone cold The past is a memory, the future a lie Your love was an illusion that's waving goodbye Don't ever say, I told you so (I told you so) When it comes to love, even saints can lose control Knew you were lying right from the start I stayed around and let you tear my world apart Beautifully cruel, that's all you are And if I could, you know, I'd break your American heart We may search for answers*4 I don't know where to start But if I could, you know I would break your American heart (American heart) Break your American heart*4
