Broken Heart
The Floacist Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He said "no, it's not you, it's me it's not you
I gotta do my thing, let me go"
She said "no, there's gotta be something nice about me
Why'd you wanna be free? Let me know"
And then she cried for a lifetime, sighed for a lifetime
Ice-cream late night for a lifetime
Like she just died on the inside, it's a habit
Child of divorce sentence settled in court
For her dad to support or the lifestyle he bought
She's all involved with these matters of the heart
Here's a little secret should've told her from the start
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
You pick it up, get it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try, don't try
You pick it up, get it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how it feels inside
Pick it up, let it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
He said "no, it's not you, it's me, it's not you
I gotta be true, let me roll"
She said "why you wanna be somewhere without me
You tell me why it is, why you gotta go?"
She's not livin' for her lifetime, runnin' from her lifeline
Livin' like she'll never get no love again
Like the tears that she saw in her mom's eyes
Thinkin' love's just a broken heart in disguise
She's distraught from the things she was taught
The adults who fought every time they got caught
She's all involved with these matters of the heart
Here's a little secret, should've told her from the start
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
You pick it up, let it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try, don't try
You pick it up, let it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try, don't try
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how it feels inside
Pick it up, let it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
You can love him but you got to love yourself, love
You can love him but you got to love yourself
You can love him but you got to love yourself, love
You can love him but you got to love yourself
For your health
Pick it, pick it, pick it, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try, don't try
Pick it up, let it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try woo
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how it feels inside
Pick it up, let it out, move it up, get it out
These days will pass you by
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry
You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
You never die from no broken heart
No matter how hard you cry




You never die from no broken heart
Don't try
