Broken Heart
Side FX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Places changed as we walked on air
Friends watched even stared at the love we shared, the love we shared
But then you blinded me with goodbye
You ripped my heart in two when will I ever stop crying over you?
So many people
Have a broken heart
So many people
So many people
Have a broken heart, like me?
So many people
Have a broken heart, like me?
Stepping outside, no reason to run and hide
Pain is all that remains
Why can't you see me now?
Standing there just another face in the crowd, just another face in the crow
But then you blinded me with goodbye
You ripped my heart in two when will I ever stop crying over you?
The lyrics of Side FX's song "Broken Heart" speaks about a storybook-like love affair that eventually turned into heartbreak. The first verse paints a picture of a love that was adored by many, one that left a mark on the hearts of those who witnessed it. The second verse unveils the devastating aftermath of the relationship, as the person the song is directed at said goodbye, leaving the singer's heart shattered. The chorus repeats the phrase "So many people have a broken heart, like me?" This phrase is a reminder that the experience of heartbreak is not unique to the singer; many others have experienced it as well.
The bridge evokes a sense of loneliness and despair that comes with heartbreak. The singer steps outside, hoping to find some solace, but all that remains is pain. Despite being amidst a crowd of people, the singer feels invisible, just another face in the crowd. The second chorus reiterates the heartbroken message of the first, the tragedy of being just one of many to experience this heartache.
