Broken Heart
Angela Jae Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You used to be everything I needed
Committed my life to you
I said I'd always follow where you lead me
Thought that your love was true
But I don't believe in fairy tales anymore
Cause you let me down
Got me writing songs about the way you left me lonely
I don't need you now

Bye bye broken heart
You can keep your sad stories
I don't need the worries
I know I'll be better off without you
When you're gone I'll be fine broken heart, broken heart

So here we are
Parting ways
Hoped I'd never see this day
I thought about everything that I would say
As you were leaving
I don't care about that anymore
It's not worth my time
Watching you walk out the door is peace of mind
I'm moving on with my life, so

Bye bye broken heart
You can keep your sad stories
I don't need the worries
I know I'll be better off without you
When you're gone I'll be fine broken heart, broken heart

You keep your lies
I'll keep my trust
Invested time while you never
(Gave no love)
Waited patiently for something that would never come
So goodbye, goodbye broken heart

Keep your sad stories
I don't need the worries
I know I'll be better off without you
When you're gone I'll be fine broken heart, broken heart





Broken heart vamp out

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Angela Jae's song, Broken Heart, speak of a failed relationship that was thought to be true and everlasting. The woman who sings the song indicates that she had committed her life to her partner, thinking that his love for her was real. Unfortunately, he let her down, and now she does not believe in fairy tales anymore. She does not simply recant her love for him but becomes bitter with it, prompting her to write about "the way you left me lonely." She ends up by saying that she does not need him anymore and that she is better off without him.


The song portrays a woman who has had enough of the false promises and heartbreaks of a relationship. She was once in love but is now tired of being let down and disillusioned. She is ready to move on and rebuild her life. The chorus of the song, "bye-bye broken heart," is symbolic of the woman leaving her former self behind and embracing a new beginning. She is determined to be her best self and live life on her own terms.
