Heartbreak's Name is an emotional ballad that explores the pain of unreciprocated love and the yearning for connection. Through vivid imagery and heartfelt lyrics, the song captures the essence of longing and the questions that linger in the aftermath of a fleeting romance.
Verse 1:
I can't find the words, they're lost in the air,
Thinking 'bout the times when you were right there.
Butterflies waking, my heart racing fast,
When you laughed at my jokes, knew I wanted this to last.
You'd rest your head on my arm, under the stars,
Those late-night drives, just us and the cars.
Pre-Chorus:
Thought I was different, in your eyes, I felt whole,
But you treated them all like they were your soul.
Caught in this dream, I thought I was the one,
But now I see, to you, it was all just fun.
Chorus:
I just wanted to be somebody to you,
Gave it all I had, but got nothing back too.
Tried to stand apart, but kept falling like rain,
They say love is beautiful, it only brought me pain.
So tell me, was it love or just a game?
Was it ever real, or only heartbreak's name?
Verse 2:
Remember those mornings, sunlight through the blinds?
You'd sip on your coffee, I’d lose track of time.
We talked 'til dawn, dreams wrapped in the glow,
But now I'm left wondering if you'd even know.
I wanted your heart, to be your favorite tune,
But you danced with others beneath the same moon.
Pre-Chorus:
Thought I was special, like no one before,
But in your world, I guess I was just one more.
Caught in this spiral, I don't know what to feel,
Love was a movie, but it wasn't real.
Chorus:
I just wanted to be somebody to you,
Gave it all I had, but got nothing back too.
Tried to stand apart, but kept falling like rain,
They say love is beautiful, it only brought me pain.
So tell me, was it love or just a game?
Was it ever real, or only heartbreak's name?
Bridge:
Every smile, every laugh, every tear we shared,
Now it feels like a shadow, a memory I bared.
I just wanted a chance, just one little sign,
But you slipped through my fingers, like sand as it binds.
Chorus:
I just wanted to be somebody to you,
Gave it all I had, but got nothing back too.
Tried to stand apart, but kept falling like rain,
They say love is beautiful, it only brought me pain.
So tell me, was it love or just a game?
Was it ever real, or only heartbreak's name?
Outro:
So here I stand, with my heart in two,
Searching for answers, but it’s only you.
Was it ever love, or just my heart’s ache?
In the end, was it love, or only heartache?
