Broken Lyrics

[Intro: Randy Pasquarella & Kyle Strang]
I don’t want to feel anymore
Anymore

[Verse 1: Kyle Strang]
I barely make the days go by
I tell myself that I am fine
But I know it's a lie
It’s all a fucking lie
Death seems so tempting and I'm on the verge of losing this battle

[Chorus: Randy Pasquarella]
I don’t wanna feel broken anymore
So tired of faking, I just want to be normal
You ran away when I needed you the most
Was I ever good enough for you?

[Verse 2: Kyle Strang & Randy Pasquarella]
If I choose this path what would it even matter? (Even matter)
The nights blend together as I Iie awake lifeless
It’s too late, you can’t change, why can’t I realize
Every word that you’ve said was all a fucking lie?

God knows I’ve tried to get you out of my mind
Why can’t I forget?
Why can’t I forget you?
[Chorus: Randy Pasquarella]
I don’t wanna feel broken anymore
So tired of faking, I just want to be normal
You ran away when I needed you the most
Was I ever good enough for you?

[Post-Chorus: Randy Pasquarella & Kyle Strang]
I was a promise that you could never keep
Now I’ll always question everything
There is nothing anyone can do for me
Bring me back to a place where I felt myself


[Verse 3: Devin Oliver & Kyle Strang]
Was it something I did?
Was it something I said that made you walk away?
I keep blaming myself for all the mistakes you’ve made
(All the mistakes you've made)
I try to hide it and not let it show
You were once a part of me, I need to let you go
I need to let you go
This is what it’s like to feel alone, alone
Alone

[Bridge: Randy Pasquarella, Kyle Strang & Devin Oliver]
Was it something I did?
Was it something I said that made you walk away?
I keep blaming myself for all the mistakes you have made
I try to hide it and not let it show
You were once a part of me, I need to let you go
I need to let you go
[Outro: Kyle Strang]
So this is what it’s like to truly feel alone
So this is what it’s like to truly feel alone

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
