[Chorus]
I'm the queen of broken hearts
Break you in a thousand parts
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?

[Verse 1]
Yeah, you need to chill, girl, don't play me
I'm too far gone, you can't save me
And I don't care, fucking hate me
I popped a pill and I'm fading
Take anything, make it about me
It's a heavy crown, it might drown me
I know it sucks bein' around me
So does life, don't at me, don't doubt me

[Chorus]
I'm the queen of broken hearts
Break you in a thousand parts
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?
I'm the queen of broken hearts
Break you in a thousand parts
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?
I'm the queen of broken hearts
Left you with a thousand scars
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?

[Verse 2]
Block my posts and my story
I'm sorry, I can be annoying
I go ghost without warning
Popped a pill, now I'm snoring
Material girl, you can't afford me
This conversation got boring
You're so 2000 before me
You're in the past, you're yesterday morning

[Chorus]
I'm the queen of broken hearts
Break you in a thousand parts
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?
I'm the queen of broken hearts
Break you in a thousand parts
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?
I'm the queen of broken hearts
Left you with a thousand scars
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?

[Bridge]
Tell me, tell me I'm the worst
Make you cry and make you hurt
I'm the queen, bow down to me
I will leave you out to bleed
Tell me, tell me I'm the worst
Make you cry and make you hurt
I'm the queen, bow down to me
I will leave you out to bleed

[Chorus]
I'm the queen of broken hearts (Yeah)
Break you in a thousand parts (A thousand parts)
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?
I'm the queen of broken hearts (Broken hearts)
Left you with a thousand scars
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?

[Outro]
When did I
When did I become so dark?
When did I
When did I become so dark?
When did I
When did I become so dark?
Used to be a shooting star
When did I become so dark?

​blackbear

blackbear is the stage name of LA-based producer and singer-songwriter Mat Musto, popularly known for co-writing Justin Bieber’s “Boyfriend,” in 2012. Some of his first collaborations were with the likes of Pharrell Williams, MGK, and Childish Gambino. Later, Musto reinvented himself—he coined the name blackbear from a previous EP titled Year of the Blackbear. Under his new name, he started leaning more towards rapping and an R&B-oriented style.

His first mixtape Sex included collaborations with his peers James Blake, Maejor Ali, and “Boyfriend” co-writer Mike Posner. The Afterglow followed in 2014.

In 2015, blackbear released “idfc,” as the lead single from his debut album Deadroses. It increased his fan following and revenue, earning him millions of playback streams and a spot on Billboard’s Uncharted List of Undiscovered and Upcoming Artists. The second single, “90210,” included a feature from G-Eazy—blackbear made an appearance in his 2014 track, “Remember You.”
