[Verse 1]
I move along
Something's wrong
I guess a part of me is gone
Skies are gray
Start to fade
I guess I threw it all away

[Chorus]
Sometimes I just want to quit
Tell my life I'm done with it
When it feels too painful
Sometimes I just want to say
I love myself but not today
When it feels too painful

[Post-Chorus]
I smash my broken heart of gold
I smash my broken heart of gold

[Verse 2]
Tired soul
Dying hope
I guess I'm running out of road
I guess I've got nowhere

[Chorus]
Sometimes I just want to quit
Tell my life I'm done with it
When it feels too painful
Sometimes I just want to say
I love myself but not today
When it feels too painful

[Post-Chorus]
I smash my broken heart of gold
I smash my broken heart of gold
I smash my broken heart of gold

[Bridge]
Feels like I'm dying
Feels like I'm lying to myself
I know that I'm trying
But it feels like I'm in Hell
I'm in Hell

[Chorus]
Sometimes I just want to quit
Tell my life I'm done with it
When it feels too painful
Sometimes I just want to say
I love myself but not today
When it feels too painful

[Post-Chorus]
I smash my broken heart of gold
I smash my broken heart of gold
I smash my broken heart of gold

ONE OK ROCK is a Japanese band with a punk-rock/hard rock style. As of 2018, the band comprises of Takahiro Moriuchi (vocals), Toru Yamashita (lead guitar), Ryota Kohama (bass), and Tomoya Kanki (drums).

The band’s name, ONE OK ROCK, comes from “one o'clock,” the time that the band used to practice on weekends. They chose this time because the rehearsal space was cheaper at this time. However, since the Japanese language made no distinction between R’s and L’s, they changed “O'CLOCK” to “O'KROCK,” which was then separated to become “OK ROCK”.

The band was formed by Toru when he was in high school. At the time the band was formed (2005), they neither had Taka on vocals nor Tomoya on drums. Both were in other bands at the time, and ONE OK ROCK was born when Toru recruited them into his band.
