Breakin' In

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Go out and buy some drinks that′ll get me drinkin' about you
I know by now I should've found somethin′ or somebody
To move me on but I don′t wanna someone new, no, no
If I'm ever gonna close that door
One thing′s for sure
I gotta get to breakin' in this broken heart
Start gettin′ used to walkin' through this town
Without my arms ′round you
In a dive on a Saturday night
Haven't let you go but I know that I should start
Breakin' in this broken heart
Breakin′ in this broken heart
When you put the ball inside the glove
Throw it underneath the mattress
Or scuff the soles and stretch the leather
In some brand new boots
Yeah, I′ve been lyin', makin′ excuses
Just buyin' time when, girl the truth is
I gotta get to breakin′ in this broken heart
Start gettin' use to walkin′ through this town
Without my arms 'round you
In a dive on a Saturday night
Haven't let you go but I know that I should start
Breakin′ in this broken heart
Baby, you make it so hard
Breakin′ in this broken heart
Baby, you're makin′ me fall apart, yeah
I gotta get to breakin' in this broken heart
Start gettin′ used to walkin' through this town
Without my arms ′round you
In a dive on a Saturday night
Haven't let you go but I know that I should start
Breakin' in this broken heart
Baby, you make it so hard
Breakin′ in this broken heart
Baby, you′re makin' me fall apart
Breakin′ in this broken heart
Breakin' in this broken heart
The song "Breakin' In" by Lily Rose tells the story of someone who is struggling to move on from a past relationship.

They need to accept the fact and start breaking in their broken heart.
The lyrics compare the process of moving on to breaking in a new glove or stretching new boots. It is a process that takes time and it's not always easy, but it's necessary. They must get used to walking through town without their ex and learn how to have fun and enjoy themselves without the presence of their partner.
The chorus emphasizes the importance of the process of breaking in the heart, it's a necessary step for the singer to heal and be able to move on with their life. Although the process is not easy, breaking in is the only way to adapt to the new reality and start over.
Overall, the song is a heartfelt ballad that speaks to anyone who has experienced heartbreak and the process of moving on. It's a reminder that it's okay to take time to heal and break in a new heart.
