Heartbreak
Diplo & Ben Burgess Lyrics

Picture this all down the block
Imagine a scenario where there are no more bars open past 8 pm in your area.

Bars are closed at eight o'clock
Bars are closing early, implying a lack of need to drink to cope with heartbreak.

'Cause don't nobody need to drown no pain
There's no need to resort to drinking and other vices to forget about a broken heart and heal.

Every song on that jukebox
All the songs played on the jukebox aim to uplift and entertain people, rather than make them sad.

Be party time, Top 40 pop
The music played at the jukebox is mostly upbeat popular songs that celebrate life and love.

There'd be no blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Nobody would be left alone in the dark, sad and crying after a heartbreak.

Aw, now, baby, wouldn't that be shame?
It would be a shame if heartbreak left us so unhappy that we couldn't enjoy life's simple pleasures.

Girl, I know we couldn't work this out
I understand that our relationship could not be mended, and we had to part ways.

I guess what goes up, it must come down
What we once elevated together and enjoyed, like love, eventually had to end or change.

Yeah, I wish we coulda made it
It's natural to wish that we could have worked out our differences and stayed together.

Hey, but it's okay 'cause
However, it's alright since heartbreak is a universal experience we can learn from and cope with.

Heartbreak makes the world go 'round
Heartbreak is an integral part of life that shapes us and helps us grow as individuals.

Whiskey'd be collectin' dust
If there were no heartbreak, there would be no need for whiskey, and it would remain unused.

Bartenders, they'd be outta luck
Bartenders would have less work to do if people did not have to drown their sorrows in alcohol.

If couples like us never did break up
If couples could stay together forever, there would be less need to move on and embrace new experiences.

If all the cards were Aces
If everything was perfect and there were no hurdles to face, there would be no thrill in life.

Nah, there wouldn't be no Vegas
There would be no point in gambling, taking risks, or seeking adventure if everything in life was guaranteed.

And we both know that wouldn't be no fun
Life would be a boring and monotonous routine if there were no unexpected turns or heartbreaks to learn from.

So cheers to you and me
Instead of sulking, we can raise a toast to us and the memories we shared together.

For keepin' Friday neon nights alive and well
We can celebrate and cherish our party nights that kept us alive and well during our time together.

This is the way it's supposed to be
Maybe, everything happens for a reason, and this is how it was destined to be for us.

Ah, at least that's what I'm tryna tell myself
It's important to convince oneself that everything is okay after heartbreak, even if it's hard to accept.

So, if it's goodbye, see you later
If we have to part ways, it's only temporary, and we may cross paths again in the future.

We're doin' them a favor
By embracing our heartbreak and moving on, we may be doing our potential partners a favor by being more evolved and self-aware.

'Cause heartbreak makes the world go 'round
The process of heartbreak and healing from it is essential for spiritual growth and wellbeing.

Mmm, 'round and 'round and 'round
Heartbreak is an ongoing journey that enables us to see life in different hues and reinvent ourselves.

Mmm, 'round and 'round
We keep moving forward, spinning in circles, and transforming ourselves, with every heartbreak and healing experience.
