Lyrics for Heartbroke as interpreted by Godhates

Heartbroke Lyrics
You stop stopping by to say hello
You started starting up each time I phone
I only call when I get the blues
You think at least I could turn to you
But I'm sure your heart is breaking too

It's getting better every day
I still reserve the right to complain to you
That being said I rarely do
You left me with nothing left to lose
But I'm sure your heart is breaking too

I see you find the way to pass the time
"You'd like him, he's a lot like you"
I didn't see you getting saddled up so soon
"Babe, I know you'll find somebody too"
Maybe another week to recoup
"It's never easy but I'm sure we'll make it through"
Yeah, I'm sure your heart is breaking too

I can't imagine how hard it's been
On second thought you don't seem to give a shit
The claim will pain but where's the bruise?
Yeah, I'm sure your heart is breaking too

Some corrections:

"you stop stopping by to say hello
You started starting up each time I phone"

"That being said I rarely do"

"you like him he's a lot like you"


Oh you'll always be Heartbroke.

In the third verse the girl is supposed to be the girlfriend.

"I like him, he's alot like you."
"Babe, I know you'll find somebody, too"

Bright Eyes and the Good Life always seem to have cool female guests... who sings the female part of the song?

Um, it's not a guest, it's Stefanie Drootin, she's always been in the band. She's an unbelivable bass guitarist, but she has such a beautiful voice that Kasher has her sing on quite a few tracks. I don't know if she's who you've heard sing with Bright Eyes, but she has both played bass and sung for them as a rotating member. Best thing about Saddle Creek bands is that they all know each other so well and they all play and sing on each other's albums; Drootin herself is in like four bands. Also, she is unbelievably hot!

Well, actually, to be exact, she hasn't ALWAYS been in the band, she has played with them since they started but she didn't become their official, full-time bassist until like 2003...

devilnevercare, maybe you're thinking of "your bruise" by death cab for cutie? kind of the same sentiment... 'you say you're hurting, but i don't see any proof.'

i saw the good life last night and during this song, tim shook his head really hard screaming "no you fuckin' don't!" during the "i'm sure your heart is breaking too" part. fantastic!

i'm pretty sure it says,
"you claim your pain but where's the bruise?"

I love this song. It always seems like she's doing fine while you're still hurt as all hell.
