BROKEN
Lyrics
[Intro – Almost Whispered, Soft female Vocals]
Mmm...
Oh, I...
I thought you'd stay...
Verse 1
I still remember how you smiled,
Like I was worth your every while.
You held me close beneath the rain,
And promised I would never hurt again.
I gave you things I couldn't give,
I gave you reasons just to live.
But now I stare into the night,
Wondering where we lost the light.
Pre-Chorus – Voice Beginning to Crack
And I don't know how to let you go,
When you're the only home I've known.
I keep pretending I'm alright,
But I still cry when I close my eyes.
Chorus – Emotional, Melodic
I'm broken...
Can you hear me calling?
I'm drowning...
And nobody sees me falling.
I gave you my heart,
You tore it apart.
And I don't know how to start again.
Oh, I loved you...
More than words could ever say.
But you left me...
With a thousand things I couldn't change.
I'm broken...
And I'm still missing you.
Verse 2 – Gentle Piano and Strings
Your photograph is by my bed,
A thousand words I never said.
Sometimes I almost call your name,
Then remember nothing is the same.
I wonder if you think of me,
Or if you've found what you need.
While I'm still fighting memories,
Of everything we used to be.
Pre-Chorus – More Intense
And I don't know how to let you go,
There's so much pain you'll never know.
I tell the world that I've moved on,
But when I'm alone, you're all I want.
Chorus – Powerful, Heartbreaking Vocals
I'm broken...
Can you hear me calling?
I'm drowning...
And nobody sees me falling.
I gave you my heart,
You tore it apart.
And I don't know how to start again.
Oh, I loved you...
More than words could ever say.
But you left me...
With a thousand things I couldn't change.
I'm broken...
And I'm still missing you.
Bridge – Piano Alone, Trembling Voice
If I could hold you one more time,
I'd never ask you to be mine.
I'd just look into your eyes,
And say the things I couldn't say goodbye.
You were my favourite melody...
The sweetest part of everything.
And now the silence sings your name,
But nothing ever sounds the same.
[Final Chorus – Full Orchestra, Emotional Vocal Peak]
I'M BROKEN!
Can you hear me calling?
I'm STILL HERE!
Even though my world is falling!
I gave you my heart,
My soul, every part.
And I'd give it all again...
Oh, I loved you!
God, I wish you knew how much!
But you left me...
And I still feel your touch.
I'm broken...
I'm broken...
Outro – Soft Piano, Almost Crying
Maybe somewhere, in another life,
We got forever...
We got it right.
But in this one...
You said goodbye.
And I'm still here...
Broken...
