Lyrics
Verse 1
You told the whole room I'm the dangerous kind
Said I chew up boys and I spit out the rind
But every name you whisper was a name you left
I counted three before I ever met
Pre-Chorus
You point your finger
You play the victim
You wear your halo like a crown
Chorus
You call me the heartbreaker
The one with the wandering eye
You call me the heartbreaker
But baby I never made you cry
You wrote that story
You cast the role
You played the saint
I played the toll
Verse 2
Your friends all nod like they already knew
They never saw the side of you I do
You leave them softly
Then blame the goodbye
I hold the knife you handed me and sigh
Pre-Chorus
You twist the timeline
You flip the script
You sell the ending that you wrote
Chorus
You call me the heartbreaker
The one with the wandering eye
You call me the heartbreaker
But baby I never made you cry
You wrote that story
You cast the role
You played the saint
I played the toll
Bridge
Maybe I should thank you
For the lesson and the lie
Maybe I should warn the next girl
Before she wonders why
(Why, why)
Chorus
You call me the heartbreaker
The one who ruins it all
You call me the heartbreaker
But I wasn't the one who let it fall
You wrote that story
You cast the role
You played the saint
I played the toll
(You played the saint)
(I played the toll)
Post-Chorus
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Who broke who
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Wish I knew
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Ask yourself
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Who broke who
