[Intro]
You broke me first, uh
[Verse 1]
Maybe you don't like talking too much about yourself
But you shoulda told me
That you were thinking 'bout someone else
You're drunk at a party
Or maybe it's just that your car broke down
Your phone's been off for a couple of months
So you're calling me now
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you, you're like this
When shit don't go your way you needed me to fix it
And like me, I did
But I ran out of every reason
[Chorus]
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
But I don't really carе how bad it hurts
When you broke me first
[Post-Chorus]
You brokе me first
When you broke me first
You broke me first
[Verse 2]
Took a while, was in denial when I first heard
That you moved on quicker than I could've ever
You know that hurt
Swear, for a while I would stare at my phone
Just to see your name
But now that it's there, I don't really know what to say
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you, you're like this
When shit don't go your way you needed me to fix it
And like me, I did
But I ran out of every reason
[Chorus]
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
When you broke me first
[Post-Chorus]
You broke me first
When you broke me first
You broke me first
[Bridge]
I'll never let you have it
What did you think would happen?
[Chorus]
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
When you broke me first
[Post-Chorus]
You broke me first
When you broke me first
You broke me first
[Outro]
When you broke me first
You broke me first
You broke me first, uh
You broke me first, uh
