NOT A BREAKUP

Why can't we call it a breakup?
Everything else seems so made up
How else can I put into words that our rendezvous finally came to an end?

I got to know you for three months
You saw parts of me no one's seen once
How else can I say that things with me and you ended before they even began?

There should be a word
For a heart not truly broken
Maybe bruised
A little used
But I never gave you all of me so

I guess it's not really a breakup
We were too quick to a make up
Saying that "there's no hard feelings" when I should be reeling is maybe a clue

I'm not really hurt from a phase out
We both knew this is how it'd play out
Not really exactly a breakup if I'm still officially me without you

There should be a word
For two hearts that danced in circles
Never tried
To intertwine
Oh I never gave you all of me so

Breakup
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(Breakup)

There should be a word
For a heart not truly broken
Maybe bruised
A little used
But I never gave you all of me so

There should be a word
For a heart that's dodged a scathing
So untouched
And thus unloved
Is there a word
For one of us
That's never found
Their other half
A kind of love
That never lasts
Is there a word?
Is there a word?
Is there a word?

There's not a phrase
I've conjured up
When the word "like"
Is not enough
Something to say
Not love or lust
Is there a way
To define us?
We're a cliché
I can't construct
Not quite the same
As broken up

Breakup
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(It's not a breakup)
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(It's not a breakup)
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(It's not a breakup)
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(It's not a breakup)
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(It's not a breakup)
(Breakup)
Why can't we call it a breakup?
(It's not a breakup)
(Why can't we call it a breakup?)

I think I've found a word
For a heart not truly broken
To describe
What can't align
'Cause I never gave you all of me so
I'm fine
