Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I had a mechanical heart
slept through the sirens and storms
counting my trophies in dark rooms
never once asking what for

Used to feel nothing at all
checked every box on the list
gold on my neck, empty chest
still I swore I was blessed

[Chorus]
Now it's broken like me
cracked right down the seams
all these little leaks
spelling out my grief
I had to have everything
lost the only thing I need
now it's broken like me
yeah, it's broken like me

[Verse 2]
I turned every moment to more
chased every shimmer and score
hands full of fragile new things
too tired to carry them home

You were the one I ignored
standing there holding the door
I traded your hand for a crown
then watched the whole kingdom fall down

[Chorus]
Now it's broken like me
cracked right down the seams
all these little leaks
spelling out my grief
I had to have everything
lost the only thing I need
now it's broken like me
yeah, it's broken like me

[Bridge]
Guess a steel heart still can rust
guess you can drown in your own dust
if you ever come back to me
will you love the wreck you see

[Chorus]
Now it's broken like me
cracked right down the seams
all these little leaks
spelling out my grief
I had to have everything
lost the only thing I need
now it's broken like me
yeah, it's broken like me
