People BreakEric Church

Released: April 16, 2021

Songwriter: Luke Laird Eric Church

Producer: Jay Joyce

Staring at the background a heartland sky
Smoke from the mill stack turnin’ that blue white
Right here was our first time on the hood of my car
Now it’s just a spot where I wonder where you are

People break people try
Things happen people cry
Someone leaves, love dies
Someone changes their mind
Baby I get it, I really do
But now I gotta go and do the hardest part
Break the news to a broken hеart

The ice on Hawk Lake this timе of year
Broken and busted just like my bathroom mirror
So hard to see what lies there beneath
Shattered reflections like the pieces of me

People break people try
Things happen people cry
Someone leaves love dies
Someone changes their mind
Baby I get it I really do
But now I gotta go and do the hardest part
Break the news to a broken heart

And where I’m going now man, I don’t really know
This truck felt hungry and she’s chewing up this road
Staring through a windshield same heartland sky
But it’s a broken heartland tonight
It’s a broken heartland tonight

Staring at the background a heartland sky
People break, people break...

Eric Church

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
