Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I′ll be here when you need me
Why'd u say that you hate me
When you′re crashing down and i'm the one you run to
Broken down and in your own head
I said you should get along with
I felt you should along with me
You should get along with
I said you should get along with
I felt you should along with me
You should get along with
Broken down i walk out the door
Feeling shift that i can't ignore
I used to ask what what′s wrong
But now you′re moving on
This won't be last time
Tell me is it all fine
I know you′ll come running back to me
Tell me does it feel right
Sitting in the sunlight
Knowing that you'll never be free
The lyrics to plxntkid's song Broken Down convey a tumultuous and intense relationship between the singer and their love interest. The opening lines suggest that the love interest is avoiding eye contact, but the singer is always available when they need support. The next lines question why the love interest expressed hatred towards the singer despite them being the person the love interest runs to when they feel down.
Further into the song, it becomes apparent that the love interest is struggling with their own internal struggles and is not able to maintain a healthy relationship. The lines "Broken down and in your own head" indicate that the love interest is mentally unstable and needing help from the "I" in the song. The "I" in the song tries to convince the love interest that getting along with them would be the best course of action.
The song’s climax occurs when the singer walks out the door, leaving an irresistible feeling to resolve the problems that were unresolved. The last verse suggests that the love interest may come back, but the pain and problems will only resurface, never allowing the love interest to be truly free.

Is great that you providing this outlet for others. You're a hidden hero, mate. ;)
I couldn't believe my ears when I heard Damien rice and the xx when I first heard your stream live (if that is what I heard). If so, you're a kinetic soul or a spy knowing exactly what I needed at that time! Or streaming me live in cartoon form, as I hid on floor shaking exactly like the animation. (Is that anime?)
Sanctuary! That's what you've created. x
