From the recording Fewer Days Ahead
Haunted by memory and restraint, “The Last Broken Heart” is a slow-burn reflection on love’s aftermath. It traces the echoes of a relationship that couldn’t last, where silence speaks louder than words and the hardest goodbyes are never said. The song lingers in shadow and vulnerability, searching for peace when the lights finally go out.
I kept thinking love would come to know my name
That every whispered promise would grow like a flame
Til the fire burned out and the truth became clear
That the hardest goodbyes are the ones we dont hear
Theres a doorway in the darkness where the memories seem to go
Where the whispers of the past forever burn low
Where unspoken words echo through the night
When the ghosts of what we were refuse to say goodbye
Will the last broken heart please turn out the lights
Will the last broken heart even make it through the night
Ive been learning how to fall just to lose the fight
Let me slip into the shadows and fade into the night
Will the last broken heart please turn out the lights
Ive been tracing every shadow that your leaving left behind
Trying hard to find a reason in the ruins of my mind
But the truth is just an echo of a love that couldnt stay
And Im standing in the silence trying to wipe those memories away
I keep sifting through the pieces of who I used to be
Before the weight of loving you took the best part of me
Been holding on to promises that were never meant to last
Still trying to walk away from the footsteps of the past
Will the last broken heart please turn out the lights
Will the last broken heart even make it through the night
I watched every promise that we made fade into the night
So if love aint gonna save me if Im never gonna shine
Will the last broken heart please turn out the lights
I remember how you would hold me and the world would disappear
How can healing ever start if I keep wishing you were here
If love is still a whisper breathing gently in my ear
Let the last broken heart my last broken heart turn out the lights
Will the last broken heart please turn out the lights
Will the last broken heart even make it through the night
Maybe hearts dont break they just forget how to shine
So until I find mine will the last broken heart please turn out the lights
Will the last broken heart
Oh oh oh
Oh ohohoh
ohohohho
My last broken heart
The last broken heart
My last broken heart…
