lyrics

Another night closes your hard little rose

And re-opens the sparkling wound

They'll pick up your sin on the sticky-sweet wind

They'll itch and they'll quicken and sick your sweet skin

And they're next to nothing, face to face,

In daylight, one by one

But that's not how they're coming

That's not the way they come

There, there little heartbreaker

It's only one night alone

Just keep away from the windows

Stay way away from the phone

And whatever you do- Don't do it tonight

A heart is a horrid cocoon

There, there little heartbreaker

It'll be all over soon

Pray that that's rain tapping at that black window

The sudden percussion of blood in your wrist won't quit

Calling the thing, recalling its kiss

To nail you to the night like this

These birds have circled ever since

The center of you fingerprints

You made your bed of flesh and bone

You set the clock in stone

There, there little heartbreaker

Just remember- no windows, no doors

And no mirrors, no mirrors, no mirrors

Mirrors know mirrors know more

Whatever you do- don't do it tonight

A heart is a horrid cocoon

There, there little heartbreaker

It'll be all over soon

about

Cory Branan Nashville, Tennessee

Throughout his decade-and-a-half-long career, Cory Branan has been too punk for country, too country for punk, too Memphis for Nashville, and probably a little too Cory Branan for anyone’s damn good.

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness

Not The Boy You Used To Know
by Micah Schnabel

supported by 5 fans who also own “There There, Little Heartbreaker”

Micah is one of my favorite songwriters around, and also an all around gentleman and scholar. Both his solo work and his work with Two Cow Garage seem to work their way into my regular music rotation with ease. doug shaw
