A Break-Up Song Songtext
von Jon Troast

I hope that no one finds you pretty
I hope that no one takes you home
′Cause while I'm sitting in the dark
It would be nice to know that you′re alone
I hope that no one hears you crying
Or if they do, that they don't care
'Cause when you handed me my heart
I spent a week just talking to the air

And when your heart is broken
You want the whole world to be blue
I just want to know that you′re hurting too


I hope you feel a little homesick
I hope your mother doesn′t call
'Cause the only thing I have to comfort me
Is hanging on the wall
It′s my graduation picture
Proves I can make it on my own
But every other picture on the wall
Is proof I hate to be alone

'Cause when your heart is broken
You want the whole world to be blue
I just want to know that you′re hurting too

A stairway to climb out of this pit
What use would that be
When all I want is you down here with me

I didn't mean for you to hear this
But I′m kind of glad you did
Instead of saying we're just friends
Let's tear it open and call it what it is
It′s a knife right through my rib cage
It′s a hammer to my head
It's a miracle that I′m still standing up
When most of me is dead

'Cause when your heart is broken
You want the whole world to be blue
I just want to know that you′re hurting too
I just want to know that you're hurting too
