I thought we were something
that could survive
but it was just another
was of time
I hoped you were someone
not like the other guys
but you were just another
waste of time
Broken-hearted through the day
I thought I was getting insane
I wanted you to feel that pain
so cruel, so tearing apart
So dark the night
I couldn’t sleep
the same fight
I couldn’t breathe
So blank my mind
I tried to find
myself again
wished you were a better man
Broken-hearted through the day
I thought I was getting insane
I wanted you to feel that pain
so cruel, so tearing apart
I can still remember that phase
checking every car driving by
if it had your license plate
I’m lying here
watching the moon
my thoughts surrounding
all about you
I thought it was my mistake
the reason why we couldn’t last
blamed myself
we’ve gone from present to past
Broken-hearted through the day
I thought I was getting insane
I wanted you to feel that pain
so cruel, so tearing apart
Just to get out those feelings in my head
I wanted to smash
with the golf clubs
everything you’ve ever had
Don’t wanna call your name
anymore
so lovely but vain
any word you said before
The rain poured down
took all the memories of you
I wanted to leave that town
to begin somewhere new
Broken-hearted through the day
I thought I was getting insane
I wanted you to feel that pain
so cruel, so tearing apart
Broken-hearted through the day
I thought I was getting insane
I wanted you to feel that pain
so cruel, so tearing apart
so cruel, falling apart
so cruel, fading away
