I've been scrolling through a jukebox trying to find
Three chords and a story that sounds like mine
But they ain't got one as far as I know
'Bout a girl gone numb on Lexapro
Yeah, I hear a whole lot about red taillights
"I'm coming over" calls in the middle of the night
And I didn't dive in a bottle to drown out the hurt
Just crawled out of bed and drove right to work

'Cause people don't really break up like that
Ain't like the movies, that's a cold hard fact
Take it from a boy still broke down bad
People don't really break up like that

She didn't cut her hair, didn't take my dog
Didn't sling no gravel, didn't flip mе off
Momma don't ask about her and I don't call her brother
Wе pretend we never had sex when we see each other
Nobody left no Dear John letter on the door
So who ain't writing these damn songs for?

If people don't really break up like that
Ain't like the movies, that's a cold hard fact
Take it from a boy still broke down bad
Yeah, people don't really break up like that

Oh, people don't really break up like that
Just 'cause it's love don't mean it's gonna last
Sometimes they leave and they never come back
Oh, people don't really break up like that

Oh, people don't really break up like that
Yeah, take it from a boy that's broke down bad
People don't really break up like that
