Put My Heart Down

"Put My Heart Down" is a mid-tempo country song. The song is sung from the perspective of a woman who is in a toxic relationship telling her lover to leave because she's done trying to make it work. She acknowledges that it won't be easy and that it already hurts, but it's the right thing for him to do, so she insists he "put [her] heart down and walk away."

Evans said of the song that "this is one of those songs that gets stuck in your head and tickles your ears. [The character in the song is] saying, 'I have a feeling you're going to hurt me, but don't. Just be honest with me and tell me if you’re going to break my heart ('put my heart down') because I'm falling for you.'"[5]

The music video, directed by Peter Zavadil, was shot at the Riverwood Mansion in East Nashville[6] on October 8, 2014,[7] and made its premiere on Rolling Stone on November 25, 2014.[8] In it, Evans is seen sitting on a couch inside a mansion surrounded by strings of lightbulbs both scattered on the floor and suspended from the ceiling. The singer said the reason for the lights is "to symbolize the light going off in her head. It's her being smart and realizing exactly what the relationship is. It's not that she has 100 percent courage to do this. [She's saying], 'I'll walk away, and you walk away… but you first. Don’t pursue me, because it's going to be hard for me to resist you.'"[8]

"Put My Heart Down" debuted at number 60 on the U.S. Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week of November 8, 2014,[9] and ultimately reached a peak of number 57, only spending four weeks on the chart.
