Broken Heart
Little Sister Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's nothing left to say
We've been down that road so many times before
We don't agree to disagree
We're so different you and me
I can't take it anymore

So we hide behind the smile
Pretend that nothing's wrongs
But just below the surface of the secret that we're keeping
Everybody knows a broken heart
Always keeps on beating

There's nothing to explain
The situation seems beyond repair
And we don't balance right from wrong
We just don't get along
We're not getting anywhere

So we hide behind the smile
Pretend that nothing's wrongs
But just below the surface of the secret that were keeping
Everybody knows a broken heart
Always keeps on beating

On and on
Up and down
Over and over and over again

Touch and go
High and low
Something time will never mend, no no

There's nothing to declare
It seems that all the damage has been done
They say opposites attract
If we keep it all in tact
Or maybe we can break the wall

So we'll hide behind the smile
Pretending nothing's wrong
Knowing just below the surface of the secret that were keeping
Everyone knows a broken heart
Always keeps on beating

Everybody knows a broken heart
Always keeps on beating

Everybody knows a broken heart
Always keeps on beating

There's nothing left to say
There's nothing to explain

On and on
On and on
On and on and on again

So we'll hide behind the smile
Pretending nothing's wrong





There's nothing left to say
There's nothing to explain

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Little Sister's song "Broken Heart" explore the complexities and struggles of a relationship that has reached a breaking point. The singer emphasizes that they have traveled down this familiar road of discord and disagreement many times before, and there is nothing more to be said or explained. The two individuals in the relationship are so fundamentally different that they cannot find common ground, leading the singer to feel overwhelmed and unable to continue.


Despite the outward facade of a smile and pretending that everything is fine, there is an underlying secret that everyone knows: their hearts are broken. The image of a broken heart is depicted as something that continues to beat, highlighting the continuous pain and emotional turmoil that exists within the relationship. It suggests that even though they may try to hide their struggles, the brokenness within them remains.


The lyrics also touch upon the notion that the damage in the relationship appears irreparable, as they do not seem to be able to find a balance between right and wrong or find a way to get along. The singer expresses a sense of hopelessness, acknowledging that they are not making any progress and are stuck in a cyclical pattern of conflict and heartbreak. They question whether keeping everything intact or breaking down the walls might be the key to establishing a healthier dynamic.


Overall, "Broken Heart" captures the frustration, pain, and resignation that can come from being in a troubled relationship that seems doomed to failure. It portrays the struggle of trying to maintain appearances while desperately longing for resolution.
