You Broke Me First Lyrics Song By Tate McRae
"You broke me first" Tate encounters an ex who is back and wants to rekindle his painful relationship.
The song was initially released on Macri's YouTube channel on April 12, 2020, with only piano instruments. On official release five days later, drums, baking sound, and other instruments were added to production. Some melodies were changed between the first and the official version of Tate.
In an interview with outnowmagazine, Tate talked about the importance of singing:
'You broke me first' is really a special song for me. This song is about a relationship that could not care less about the other person and then decides to crawl again after 6 months. It makes sense to know how much they mean to you, but this time they are not being allowed to come back. I hope everyone like me can connect with this song.
You Broke Me First Lyrics
Intro You Broke Me First Lyrics
You broke me first
Verse 1: You Broke Me First Lyrics
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
Your phone's been off for a couple of months, so you're calling me now
Pre-Chorus: You Broke Me First Lyrics
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
Chorus: You Broke Me First Lyrics
Now suddenly you're asking 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
Verse 2: You Broke Me First Lyrics
Took a while, was in denial when I first heard
That you moved on quicker than I could've 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
Pre-Chorus: You Broke Me First Lyrics
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
Chorus: You Broke Me First Lyrics
Now suddenly you're asking 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
Bridge: You Broke Me First Lyrics
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?
Chorus: You Broke Me First Lyrics
Now suddenly you're asking 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 oh
