    Backstory:
    I wrote this heart warming song after getting the idea for the hook of how it's hard to hurt a heart that's already broke. The bridge in this song says it all.                     

    Lyrics:
                                                      
    She sat alone and faced an empty chair And raised a toast to the empty air Shootin’ down men’s pride - with every come on line She was drinkin’ straight Beam in a glass And I was thinkin’ I’ve been where you’re at The later I watched - the braver I got So in my most sincere tone - I asked “on the rebound?” As I braced for the storm - instead - she said - “sit down” She said it’s hard to hurt a heart that’s already broke Surrounded by a wall so it can be alone Using whiskey on the rocks as the mortar and stone It’s hard to hurt a heart that’s broke I heard about all his cheatin’ ways She kicked him out, said she felt betrayed But the longer we talked - the softer she got I said I know my advice - is the last thing that you want As I braced for fire and ice - instead - she said - go on I said it’s hard to hurt a heart that’s already broke Surrounded by a wall so it can be alone Using whiskey on the rocks as the mortar and stone It’s hard to hurt a heart that’s broke I said I laid stone four years ago on a wall around my heart Thinkin’ that my only hope was to drink away her scar Till someone set me straight and taught me to forget Said if you don’t fill up life’s suitcase it’s just a wasted trip It’s hard to love a heart scared of being broke Surrounded by a wall so it can be alone So the best advice I know is to chip away the stone And find a love that’s hard to hurt You’ll find a love that’s hard to hurt
