Lyrics

Intro

mm-mm, ah

(uh) yeah, ooh

mm-mm, ah

Verse

Your sweater's on the chair like you never left

Coffee gone cold, your laugh still in the mess

I trace the ring where you said forever lived

Now it's just a scar that I can't undress

You said forever like it was a plan

Left a map of promises in the palm of my hand

I'm walking through the rooms that used to be ours

Learning how to breathe with a hole where you were

Pre-chorus

I kept the light on, I kept the door

I kept the song that we sang on the floor

Held every word until it broke

Held every word until it broke (oh)

Chorus

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (yeah, yeah)

You ripped the chorus out and left me on the low

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (oh-oh)

Singing the parts you forgot, I'm singing alone

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (na-na)

Every little memory replayed in stereo

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (uh-huh, yeah)

Can't stitch the pieces when you don't even know

Verse

I found your lipstick on the rim of my glass

The same red you used to paint me when we laughed

I swallowed the goodbye like it was medicine

Tasted bitter, tasted like the end

You said you'd call me when the lights went dim

Now the silence calls and I'm answering him

Your silhouette fades at the corner of dreams

But the outline stays, it traces everything

Pre-chorus

I kept the light on, I kept the door

I kept the song that we sang on the floor

Held every word until it broke

Held every word until it broke (watch)

Chorus

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (yeah, yeah)

You ripped the chorus out and left me on the low

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (oh-oh)

Singing the parts you forgot, I'm singing alone

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (na-na)

Every little memory replayed in stereo

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (uh-huh, yeah)

Can't stitch the pieces when you don't even know

Bridge

Tell me how to stop the ache, tell me how to stop the swell

Can you hear me in the quiet? Can you hear me when I yell?

I wore your name like a necklace, now it's just a weight

I learn to hold my breath and then I let it break

(ah-ah) ooh, yeah

Chorus

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (yeah, yeah)

You ripped the chorus out and left me on the low

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (oh-oh)

Singing the parts you forgot, I'm singing alone

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (na-na)

Every little memory replayed in stereo

I'm heart broke, I'm heart broke (uh-huh, yeah)

Can't stitch the pieces when you don't even know
