Broken Hearts and Fairytales
Jake Coco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A broken heart, a fairytale it's all the same to me.
But I don't wanna be just waiting patiently
For life to come and take me away.
So I'm sitting here in silence,
and I'm pretty sure that violence
Is the only form of love I'll ever know.But I guess that goes to show that even those filled up with hope
have less than you can tell meets the eye.
And you lead me on and on and on again, you do.
You lead me on and on and on again;
I hope to God this hurts you too.
I wish I never loved you;
I wish I didn't care.
Life is so degrading, and I'm pretty sure I hate it.
I gotta get myself out of this town.
Before I'm broken down, lying shattered on the ground,
For all the world to see who I am.
And you lead me on and on and on again, you do.
You lead me on and on and on again;
I hope to God this hurts you too.
I wish I never loved you;
I wish I didn't care.
The lyrics of Jake Coco's song "Broken" explores the struggles of being heartbroken in a world that seems to be falling apart. Life seems frustrating and overrated, the idea of love seems like a fairytale that is unattainable, and the future appears bleak. The singer does not want to wait patiently for things to fall into place; instead, he wants to take control of his life. He is sitting in silence and believes that violence is the only form of love he will ever experience. However, this portrays a sense of hopelessness and despair in the singer's life.
The lyrics imply that even the people who seem "filled up with hope" have less than meets the eye. The singer's experiences lead him to believe that love and hope are insufficient and irrelevant, giving rise to a bleak outlook on life. At this point, the singer addresses someone, who may have led him on, and may have filled him with false hope. He hopes that this person gets hurt as he did.
In conclusion, the lyrics of the song "Broken" depict a heartbroken individual on the edge. They feel like they are losing control, and the challenges of life are overwhelming. Through this song, Jake Coco is trying to express the feeling of despair and pain that comes with heartbreak and the way people cope with it.

- My heart isn't broken. It's just bruised and scarred from so many hits. It's been bandaged too much that it's lately it's been bleeding thru the bandages..I wish I never believed him...I wish I didn't cry myself to sleep last night. I wish I could just simply leave like you tell me to if you are hurting me. I wish I had listened to what my brain told me..In the end I got hurt again but..it's okay...I'll heal right? I love you Jake Coco </3 You made my day with this song and I thank you for it
