Broke Lyrics by Alteras

Grief

2016

[Verse 1]
I take a moment to step back and finally breath
I never thought that you could really do this to me
I always thought that you and I were stronger
We lasted all this time but I guess you can’t stay any longer

[Pre-Chorus]
You left me, it's deadly to think it's me who needed you

[Chorus]
Like ice to skin, cold shoulder burns
The shocking thing is I prefer the hurt
You loved me fiercely, held me close
You kept me sane but now I’m broke
Now I’m broke

[Verse 2]
It’s hard just to admit that I lay in bed awake
Thinking of all the choices that I wish I didn’t make
Somehow you made me want nothing else but you
You should know that wasn’t fair to me, I never asked for you

[Pre-Chorus]
You left me, it's deadly to think it's me who needed you

[Chorus]
Like ice to skin, cold shoulder burns
The shocking thing is I prefer the hurt
You loved me fiercely, held me close
You kept me sane but now I’m broke
Now I’m broke

[Bridge]
It makes fucking sick to think that I could be being lied to, I know you didn’t even really try to
I think that I’m a fool to sit and take it but that doesn't mean you didn't fake it

[Chorus]
Like ice to skin, cold shoulder burns
The shocking thing is I prefer the hurt
You loved me fiercely, held me close
You kept me sane but now I’m broke
Now I’m broke
