Remedy for a Broken Heart Lyrics

One for the broken heart

One to sit on the chart

One for those who felt the pain to love right from the start

Man that was me

Swear to god, that was me

My ex did a number, left a burn, third degree

I got the burns to prove it 'cause she used some lighter fluid

She burned through my heart because I don't know what I'm doing

I guess

I must confess

I'm getting closer to numb

Closer to dumb

Beating on my own drum

Yeah, I'm beating and beating, I'm single-file in movie theaters

Putting on crocs to rock with a wife-beater

Closed the page, the book was bringing me deeper

Time after time, kept giving girls sequels

Meeting different mamas, different daddies, different people

Hoping that my partner's going to treat me like their equal

A shot in the dark but I still thread the needle

The way you do me wrong is going to make my words lethal

Man yeah

I want to heal the world through my music, man yeah

I want to make the heartbreak up and disappear

I want a clean slate for my life, crystal clear

I want a girl besides family to be there

Yeah

I don't think I'll have it

Only time you look at me, is when you want me to tap it

I want to knock it out the park, but I can't say I batted

'Cause I never got a chance to show you what it was

And when I tried, you didn't care but still caused a fuss

Got me chasing after you you, now I'm looking dumb

But you want a second chance, yeah, sorry hun

Remember sitting on the beach, laughing in the sun?

Talking of a life that had never begun

Of course you don't remember 'cause you said you were done

I see why people end the pain by using a gun

Yeah yeah

One for the broken heart

One to sit on the chart

One for those who felt the pain to love right from the start

Man that was me

Swear to god, that was me

My ex did a number, left a burn, third degree

I got the burns to prove it 'cause she used some lighter fluid

She burned through my heart because I don't know what I'm doing

I guess

I must confess

I'm getting closer to numb

Closer to dumb

Beating on my own drum

So, I'm closer to this

I'm closer to that

We can go tit for tat, but you never brought back

I got a question to ask

Girl, what's up with that?

Had a heart attack, now I'm sitting here sad

Why should I compensate for everything that you lack?

You never spared a dime, never offered me jack

Stressed me out, couple skulls I want to crack

The love handbook never once mentioned that

Dodging phone calls, swatting all the gnat gnats

Throw dirt on my name, thought that I would clap back

I think deep down, she wished I had a strap

You know them fast little girls like a hood rat

When I leave the hood, swear I'm never coming back

She only wants me back so that I can bend that back back

Yeah, call me crazy, girl, that's a red flag

Mama raised me humble, got it all, don't brag

Yeah, it's nothing left to say but I speak anyways

Looking to stars in hopes for better days

Went and risked it all just for us to part ways

"It's not you, it's me, Q, we really need a break"

Yeah, it's in my name but I've never been a snake

Cause the heartbreak, yeah I never could relate

Living on own, yeah I had a bitter taste

I'm fortunate for all the manifesting that I made

One for the broken heart

One to sit on the chart

One for those who felt the pain to love right from the start

Man that was me

Swear to god, that was me

My ex did a number, left a burn, third degree

I got the burns to prove it 'cause she used some lighter fluid

She burned through my heart because I don't know what I'm doing

I guess

I must confess

I'm getting closer to numb

Closer to dumb

Beating on my own drum

Yeah, it's nothing left to say but I speak anyways

Looking to stars in hopes for better days

Went and risked it all just for us to part ways

It's not you, it's me, Q, we really need a break

Yeah, it's in my name but I've never been a snake

'Cause the heartbreak, yeah I never could relate

Living on own, yeah I had a bitter taste

I'm fortunate for all the manifesting that I made
