Continuing my ranking of the songs on Miranda Lambert’s new album, Postcards from Texas…
#2. ‘Way Too Good at Breaking My Heart’
Another song about chasing the wrong kind of love, and the inability to resist the one person you should be running from. I know I shouldn’t tie everything back to Lambert’s personal life — she’s a storyteller, after all — but I believe this whole album is about the breakup of her first marriage and the tumult of the years that immediately followed.
What I find fascinating is that she’s released four other albums since then and mostly stayed away from those topics. I wonder what prompted her to explore them now.
