Heartbreak
Diplo Lyrics

Picture this all down the block
Imagine a street where everything is closed early, without anyone drowning their sorrows in alcohol.

Bars are closed at eight o'clock
The bars close early, indicating people do not rely on including alcohol to effectively cope with their heartbreak.

'Cause don't nobody need to drown no pain
In these difficult times of heartbreak, people do not rely on alcohol to ease their pain and cope with heartbreak.

Every song on that jukebox
All the songs on the jukebox are happy and upbeat, indicating that people are focused on having fun and moving past their heartbreak.

Be party time, Top 40 pop
The songs on the jukebox are upbeat, happy, and popular, indicating that people are focused on having fun and moving past their heartbreak.

There'd be no blue eyes cryin' in the rain
No one is crying because of their heartbreak, indicating that people are coping and looking forward to moving on.

Girl, I know we couldn't work this out

I guess what goes up, it must come down

Yeah, I wish we coulda made it

Hey, but it's okay 'cause

Heartbreak makes the world go 'round

Whiskey'd be collectin' dust
If people did not need to drown their sorrows in alcohol due to heartbreak, bars would not sell enough alcohol to keep their stock moving.

Bartenders, they'd be outta luck
Bartenders would not make enough money if people did not drink due to heartbreak.

If couples like us never did break up
If couples never broke up, it would be a stagnant and boring world without heartbreak.

If all the cards were Aces
If everything always went right for everyone, the world would be a fairly boring place without the struggles that arise from heartbreak.

Nah, there wouldn't be no Vegas
Las Vegas is known for its glitz and glamour, which would not exist without people getting unlucky and dealing with heartbreak.

And we both know that wouldn't be no fun
Without heartbreak and trouble, life would be a lot less interesting and enjoyable to live; people enjoy the excitement of navigating life's ups and downs.

So cheers to you and me

For keepin' Friday neon nights alive and well

Ah, at least that's what I'm tryna tell myself

So, if it's goodbye, see you later
