Broken Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Queria que você soubesse que amo o jeito que você ri
Eu quero te abraçar forte e mandar sua dor embora
Eu fiquei com sua fotografia ; Ela me faz bem
Eu quero te abraçar forte e roubar sua dor
Porque eu sofro quando me abro
E eu não me sinto forte o bastante
E eu não me sinto bem quando você se vai
O pior já passou agora e podemos respirar novamente
Quero te abraçar forte, você manda minha dor embora
Ainda há muito a aprender e não resta ninguém para lutar
Quero te abraçar e roubar sua dor
The song "Broken" by Seether speaks about the pain and hurt that one feels after a break-up. The lyrics convey the singer's desire to have his lover back in his life and the struggles he faces when trying to move on. The opening lines state that the singer loves the way his lover laughs and he wishes to hold her tight and take away her pain. The use of the Portuguese word "quebrado" at the beginning of the song translates to "broken" in English, indicating the emotional state of the singer.
The chorus of the song highlights the singer's vulnerability and the struggle he faces with his emotions. He feels weak and unable to cope when he opens up to someone and is left alone again. However, he still holds onto the hope of being with his lover again and the possibility of healing. The second verse talks about how the worst has passed, but there is still a long road ahead for the singer, and he wishes to share his lover's pain and take it away. The lyrics convey feelings of desperation and longing for a lost love.

Queria que você soubesse que amo o jeito que você ri
I wanted you to know that I love the way you laugh
Eu quero te abraçar forte e mandar sua dor embora
I want to hug you tightly and take away your pain
Eu fiquei com sua fotografia ; Ela me faz bem
I kept your photograph, it makes me feel good
Eu quero te abraçar forte e roubar sua dor
I want to hug you tightly and steal your pain
Porque eu sofro quando me abro
Because I suffer when I open up
E eu não me sinto forte o bastante
And I don't feel strong enough
Porque eu sofro quando estou solitário
Because I suffer when I'm lonely
E eu não me sinto bem quando você se vai
And I don't feel good when you're gone
O pior já passou agora e podemos respirar novamente
The worst is over now and we can breathe again
Quero te abraçar forte, você manda minha dor embora
I want to hug you tightly, you take away my pain
Ainda há muito a aprender e não resta ninguém para lutar
There's still so much to learn and no one left to fight
Quero te abraçar e roubar sua dor
I want to hug you and steal your pain
