Breakup Song
Jasmine V Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We held our love behind bars
No visitors, no, oh no
He had my heart on death row yeah, he did

I don’t know what was inside his mind
It wasn’t what I thought so confronted him
Let him know yeah, yeah, uh
That’s when the book started
To change the page the yelling after that
And we always make up
But this time was different

I’m looking him in his eyes
I’m asking him for the truth
The one thing he had to say
Was "I don’t wanna be with you"

He let me go, go oh, go oh
He let me go, go oh, go oh
That’s when I heard the break up song
The break up song the break up song

The break up song the break up song
The break up song
That’s when I heard the break up song

What do I do now I’m free
No taking him back from that, no
But I don’t really wanna go no, I don’t
Still gotta look up to the sky
And wait for the shade to go
No, I won’t be alone for long, no

That’s when the book started
To change the page no regrets after that
I know we always make up
But this time was different

I’m looking him in his eyes
I’m asking him for the truth
The one thing he had to say
Was "I don’t wanna be with you"

He let me go, go oh, go oh
He let me go, go oh, go oh
That’s when I heard the break up song
The break up song the break up song

The break up song the break up song
The break up song
That’s when I heard the break up song

And I never thought it’d come to this
But I guess it’s for the best if
His love for me wasn’t real oh, oh
And I’mma make myself get over this
Cause our love is long gone

That’s when I heard the break up song
The break up song the break up song
The break up song the break up song

The break up song the break up song
The break up song the break up song
The break up song the break up song
The break up song





That’s when I heard the break up song

Overall Meaning

In Jasmine V's song "Breakup Song," the lyrics describe a relationship that has come to an end. The opening lines portray the idea of keeping their love confined, like being behind bars, with no visitors allowed. The metaphor of the heart being on death row suggests that the relationship was on borrowed time and nearing its end.


The singer of the song realizes that there were things going on in her partner's mind that she didn't expect. She decides to confront him, seeking the truth about their relationship. However, instead of receiving the answers she hoped for, he admits that he doesn't want to be with her anymore. This revelation is like a break-up song, a painful anthem that signifies the end of their love.


After the break-up, the singer finds herself in a state of uncertainty. While she doesn't want to go back to her ex, she is unsure about what to do now that she's free. She waits for the pain to subside, expressing that she won't be alone for long. The lyrics emphasize that this break-up is different from their previous arguments and reconciliations, indicating that this time there is no hope for reconciliation.


Overall, "Breakup Song" reflects the emotional journey of a person coming to terms with the end of a relationship. It highlights the pain, confusion, and the need to move on.

it's sad how pictures can hide what really happens behind closed doors, they we're cute but it's not worth her getting hurt❤

Natori Williams

I still can't believe he abused her that is still shocking

laura liz

Meu Deus Eu Amo Essa Menina ♥

Kayleen Schleeter

I mean, they were a cute couple and I love them as a couple, but he beat her. you just Dont do that to your significant other. you Dont hurt the ones you loved, but he obviously didn't love her if he beat her and I'm proud that she overcame it, she's a better person to this day. I'm not saying she wasn't a good person before, but I feel like since she's been through a lot, she's more aware and she was able to help others in the same situation.
