Everything
Broken Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
before you go
one last piece, of my soul
would it matter if i held you
one last time
i wanted to be your first love
i would have settled for your
last romance.
but as you walk into his arms
will we ever have our last dance?
forever ends within this minute
why did you choose to end it like this?
when there was so much left to say
you were soft-spoken
in the hardest way
endless waiting for those things,
you could never say
you always knew,
how to break my day
forever ends from this minute
i don't want this to end tonight
it's not alright
infinitely was written
trying not to fold for you
this one last time
before you go to him
whoever said to have loved and lost
is better than never loving
never felt like this!
the times of our lives were not spent well
and so i fell,
harder than ever!
and i'll keep reminding myself to regret.
The lyrics of Broken's song "Everything" depict a vulnerable and regretful narrator expressing their last plea to a loved one before they depart. The opening lines suggest a sense of finality, as the singer acknowledges that this interaction may be their last chance to connect on a deeper level. They yearn for the opportunity to hold the person close, offering comfort and reassurance. The singer reflects upon the desire to have been their first love, but acknowledges the reality of settling for being their last romance. As the loved one walks away into the arms of another, the singer questions if they will ever have the chance to share a final dance together.
The chorus reinforces the idea that forever has ended within the present moment. The singer wonders why the loved one has chosen to end things in this manner when there were still so many things left unsaid. They describe the loved one as soft-spoken in a way that makes it difficult for them to express their true feelings, causing the singer to endure endless waiting for unspoken words. It is revealed that the loved one had the power to affect the singer's entire day, consistently knowing how to break their spirit.
The second verse continues to emphasize the finality of the situation, with the singer expressing their unwillingness for the relationship to end that night, acknowledging that it is not alright. The word "infinitely" suggests that the love was meant to endure forever, but now it's at risk of crumbling. The singer tries not to give in or give up on the loved one one last time before they go to be with someone else. The bridge of the song shares the sentiment that it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all, but the singer expresses that they have never felt pain quite like this. The times they shared together were not well spent, leading to the singer falling harder than ever before. They remind themselves constantly to feel regret for what they have lost.
Overall, the lyrics of "Everything" delve into themes of regret, longing, and the difficulty of letting go when there are still unresolved emotions. The singer yearns for a chance to express their love and fears that their relationship's potential has been wasted. The emotions depicted in the lyrics are raw and heartfelt, portraying a sense of loss and resignation.
