Broken
Going Deeper Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wakin′ up in an empty bed
All alone with the words you said
Did you really need to say goodbye
You couldn't even look into my eyes

I know that it′s real when it hurts
And I only learn when it burns
Think we're better off far apart
Need a new start

Like a feeling try send on
I won't give in, I won′t stop
I can′t be broken
No, I won't be broken by you

I can′t be broken
No, I won't be broken by you
I can′t be broken
No, I won't be broken by you

Promises that you never kept
Only quest is inside my head
All the passion in-between the sheets
I won′t forget I know you ain't for me

I know that it's real when it hurts
And I only learn when it burns
Think we′re better off far apart
Need a new start

Like a feeling try send on
I won′t give in, I won't stop
I can′t be broken
No, I won't be broken by you

I can′t be broken
No, I won't be broken by you




I can′t be broken
No, I won't be broken by you
