you broke me first

(You broke me first)

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

Or your phone's been off for a couple months, so you're callin' me now

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

Now suddenly you're askin' 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

You broke me first

Took a while, I was in denial when I first heard

That you moved on quicker than I coulda 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

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

Now suddenly you're askin' 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

You broke me first

What did you think would happen?

What did you think would happen?

I'll never let you have it

What did you think would happen?

Now suddenly you're askin' 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

You broke me first

(You broke me first)

You broke me first

Ooh
