The sun came up on a faded town,
Just like it always does when it goes down.
The coffee's hot and the morning's gray,
You're not here, and you're not comin' today.
I look in the mirror at the lines on my face,
Another day of livin' in this lonely place.
Seems the whole world just keeps spinning 'round,
While a piece of me is buried in the ground.

(Chorus)
'Cause your heart is broken, but it's beatin' just the same,
A steady rhythm whispering her name.
It's a stubborn drum in a tired old chest,
Putting on a show like all the rest.
Yeah, your heart is broken, but it's beatin' just the same,
Marchin' to a sorrow you can't ever tame.

The old pickup truck is sittin' in the drive,
Got half a tank, but nowhere left to drive.
Friends call me up to get a beer or two,
But it's hard to talk when all they talk about is you.
The radio plays some old forgotten song,
About a love that couldn't last too long.
It's a slow burn, a quiet kind of hurt,
Wearin' a hole in my favorite t-shirt.

(Chorus)

Yeah, it's beatin' just the same...
Just the same...
