Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You left your cup by the sink
Still got your key in the bowl
I keep the room half-lit
Like you might come home whole
Your sweater hangs on the chair
Your name still lives on my phone
I said I'm fine all week
But I don't feel fine alone
[Pre-Chorus]
And every night
I walk that line
Between letting go
And losing my mind
[Chorus]
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I keep holding the shape
Of where you are
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I say your name
And it splits apart
[Verse 2]
The mirror knows my face
But it looks a little unsure
I laugh with my friends
Then I cry in the grocery store
I found your note in the coat
Just three words, then nothing more
Now the house sounds loud
When the floorboards ask for more
[Pre-Chorus]
And every night
I start to fall
Then I hear your ghost
In the hallway wall
[Chorus]
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I keep holding the shape
Of where you are
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I say your name
And it splits apart
[Bridge]
If love was a door
Then you took the frame
Now the cold comes in
And calls my name
I tried to forgive
I tried to be strong
But the bruise still blooms
Where you belonged
[Chorus]
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I keep holding the shape
Of where you are
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I say your name
And it splits apart
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
Still beating here
But torn apart
You left your cup by the sink
Still got your key in the bowl
I keep the room half-lit
Like you might come home whole
Your sweater hangs on the chair
Your name still lives on my phone
I said I'm fine all week
But I don't feel fine alone
[Pre-Chorus]
And every night
I walk that line
Between letting go
And losing my mind
[Chorus]
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I keep holding the shape
Of where you are
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I say your name
And it splits apart
[Verse 2]
The mirror knows my face
But it looks a little unsure
I laugh with my friends
Then I cry in the grocery store
I found your note in the coat
Just three words, then nothing more
Now the house sounds loud
When the floorboards ask for more
[Pre-Chorus]
And every night
I start to fall
Then I hear your ghost
In the hallway wall
[Chorus]
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I keep holding the shape
Of where you are
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I say your name
And it splits apart
[Bridge]
If love was a door
Then you took the frame
Now the cold comes in
And calls my name
I tried to forgive
I tried to be strong
But the bruise still blooms
Where you belonged
[Chorus]
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I keep holding the shape
Of where you are
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
I say your name
And it splits apart
It's a broken heart
It's a broken heart
Still beating here
But torn apart
Style of Music
Pop ballad with mid-tempo brushed drums and soft piano arpeggios, verse stays intimate with close-mic vocals and sparse low strings; pre-chorus lifts with rising harmonies and a filtered pulse; chorus opens wide with stacked doubles, airy backing vowels, and a short refrain that lands hard. Add reversed piano swells into each transition, a tapped tambourine on the backbeat, and a final chorus with bigger drums and emotional ad-libs. Bright but aching mix, polished and close to the ear.
