Broken Again

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No path is seen before you
The tears of loss are back again
You've given up
A fool is the one who resents you
Show me the pain that's inside you
I'll be the light there to guide you
I wish you would put me beside you
Cleanse the soul of memories
Forget the times you cherished
Moments framed become all lies
Disguised intentions surfacing
Do you care about you too?
Show me the pain that's inside you
I'll be the light there to guide you
I wish you would put me beside you
Show me you care about me too
Why can't my intentions be trusted?
No!
Love is absent in your world
Useless
Show me the pain that's inside you
I'll be the light there to guide you
I wish you would put me beside you
Show me the pain that's inside you
I'll be the light there to guide you
You never believe in my value
I'm used up again and discarded
I'm broken again and can't blame you
I'm broken again and can't blame you
I'm broken again and won't blame you
The lyrics of Paindivision's song "Broken Again" express deep feelings of hopelessness, loss, and abandonment. The opening lines convey a sense of aimlessness and despair, with the singer feeling lost and without purpose. The repetition of the phrase "The tears of loss are back again" signifies a cycle of emotional pain and sorrow that the singer is unable to escape from. The lyrics suggest a deep sense of giving up and resignation, with the singer feeling like a fool for harboring feelings of resentment towards others. This internal conflict is further highlighted by the plea for someone to show the pain that's inside and to guide them towards the light.
The next paragraph delves into themes of cleansing the soul and letting go of cherished memories that have now become tainted with lies and hidden intentions. The singer questions whether the person they care about also cares for themselves, highlighting a sense of mutual neglect and self-destructive behavior. The repeated entreaty for someone to show they care and to be a guiding light in the darkness reveals a yearning for connection and understanding amidst the emotional turmoil. The lyrics paint a picture of a fractured relationship, where trust is eroded, and love is absent, leaving both parties feeling empty and discarded.
The following paragraph delves into the frustration and disbelief of the singer, who questions why their intentions cannot be trusted. The rejection and dismissal they feel are palpable, with the refrain "Love is absent in your world, useless" emphasizing the perceived futility of trying to connect with someone who is emotionally distant and unavailable. The cycle of pain and disappointment continues, with the singer feeling unseen and unvalued, ultimately leading to feelings of being broken and discarded once again. The repetition of the lines "I'm broken again and can't blame you" emphasizes a sense of resignation and acceptance of their own brokenness, despite the desire for connection and understanding.
In the final paragraph, the singer's vulnerability and raw emotions come to the forefront as they express a sense of betrayal and abandonment. The repeated refrain of wanting someone to show them the pain inside and to be a guiding light underscores a longing for empathy and validation. The acknowledgment that they are broken again, and the inability to blame the other person, speaks to a complex mix of self-blame, compassion, and a yearning for healing and reconciliation. The lyrics of "Broken Again" encapsulate a poignant exploration of emotional turmoil, inner conflict, and the struggle for connection and understanding in the face of repeated pain and rejection.
