OST NFS Undeground \ Element 80 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The day you left me
There was a feeling I have never shown
The day you told me
There were the words that I have never known
And now it's over
So what's left that I should ever feel
Cause since the day you left me I have been so alone
And now we're left with broken promises
My heart can't take no more
And now we're left with broken promises
My mind has had enough

Deep inside me
There are things that I have never told
They burn inside me
And now I need to know
Why are you trying to take everything away from me
Well I'm begging you
I'm here with nothing left to show
'Cause since the day you left me I have been so alone

And now we're left with broken promises
My heart can't take no more
And now we're left with broken promises
My mind has had enough

Look at how you turned on me
You ran away and left me here with nothing to see
I'm a man so turn around and say it to me
Don't you think I've got something to say

Look at how you turned on me
You ran away and left me here with nothing to see
I'm a man so turn around and say it to me
Don't you think I've got something to say

Now look at how you turned on me
You ran away and left me here with nothing to see
I'm a man so turn around and say it to me
Don't you think I've got something to say

And now we're left with broken promises
My heart can't take no more
And now we're left with broken promises
My mind has had enough

And now we're left with broken promises
My heart can't take no more




And now we're left with broken promises
My mind has had enough

The day you left me
When you left me


There was a feeling I have never shown
I had never felt like that before


The day you told me
When you informed me


There were the words that I have never known
I had never heard those words before


And now it's over
Now it's finished


So what's left that I should ever feel
I have no remaining emotions


Cause since the day you left me I have been so alone
I've been lonely since you left me


And now we're left with broken promises
We made promises that we couldn't keep


My heart can't take no more
My heart can't handle it anymore


And now we're left with broken promises
We made promises that we couldn't keep


My mind has had enough
My mind is fed up


Deep inside me
In my soul


There are things that I have never told
I've never revealed some things


They burn inside me
They are painful for me


And now I need to know
Now I have to find out


Why are you trying to take everything away from me
Why do you want to take away all my things?


Well I'm begging you
I'm begging you


I'm here with nothing left to show
I have nothing left to offer


'Cause since the day you left me I have been so alone
I've been lonely since you left me


Look at how you turned on me
See how you betrayed me


You ran away and left me here with nothing to see
You left me with nothing


I'm a man so turn around and say it to me
I'm asking you to talk to my face


Don't you think I've got something to say
I have something to say


And now we're left with broken promises
We made promises that we couldn't keep


My heart can't take no more
My heart can't handle it anymore


And now we're left with broken promises
We made promises that we couldn't keep


My mind has had enough
My mind is fed up


And now we're left with broken promises
We made promises that we couldn't keep


My heart can't take no more
My heart can't handle it anymore


And now we're left with broken promises
We made promises that we couldn't keep


My mind has had enough
My mind is fed up

when EA knew how to make games, jawdropping awesome masterpieces

@elvishendrix676

Robert Bus The golden era NFS games (HP2-UC) were made by Black Box, EA is just a publisher. But yeah, still, games under EA were a lot better back then. Now the company is a greedy cashcow! Sad really, but true. This game remains as one of my favorites!

@tissue869

I think youre giving EA too much credit.. they have always been a greedy company with a couple decent game dev studios.. now theyre just greedy and nothing more LOL

@yvanthepcgamer7993

actually not EA their fault though. Its just the new developers they took that messed it up instead of still having the original designers and developers do the future games
