The Beat Lyrics

Cover art for The Beat lyrics by Ben Rector

About an independent and extremely flirtatious girl who falls for a guy but her insecurity is at the root of her relationship's problems and the cause of its end. He breaks her heart because he found no security in her, and therefore the relationship as a whole. Her heart is broken but she won't say it (out of her insecurity she won't risk being vulnerable even though she's not over him). However she, being blind to her own insecurity because she is insecure herself, can't go back to something that brought her so much heartbreak. It was because her core flaws becoming exposed that led to heartbreak. It wasn't him, it was her that led to her own destruction.
