This Is What Heartbreaks Like
This slow melancholic indie punk track at 30 bpm opens with melancholic clean acoustic guitar chords over subtle industrial textures and understated electronic layers, Verses spotlight moody female contralto vocals against a moody, industrial backdrop, Choruses swell with subtle industrial elements, enveloping electronics, and lingering slow acoustic guitar harmonies, blending analog warmth and digital grit for an immersive, atmospheric sound

Lyrics
Verse 1
You broke me in the most hurtful way
Turned my heart into a live grenade
All I wanted was for you to stay
But all I was to you was temporary
At the end of the day
Chorus
So I guess this is what heartbreaks like
Staring at our pictures on my phone in the middle of the night
I keep saying I'm fine when it’s a lie
This is what a heart breaks like
Slow at first
Then all at once inside
Yeah, this is what heartbreaks like
Verse 2
Friends say “you’ll get over it”
And move on to the next subject
Wish I could say that they're right
But I'd have to object
The future, to me, doesn't seem that bright
Chorus
So I guess this is what heartbreaks like
Staring at our pictures on my phone in the middle of the night
I keep saying I'm fine when it’s a lie
This is what a heart breaks like
Slow at first
Then all at once inside
Yeah, this is what heartbreaks like
Bridge
Life's not like a movie
It doesn't always end happy
No happily ever after
And if given the choice I'd much rather
Go back to the time before you ever met me
Chorus
So I guess this is what heartbreaks like
Staring at our pictures on my phone in the middle of the night
I keep saying I'm fine when it’s a lie
This is what a heart breaks like
Slow at first
Then all at once inside
Yeah, this is what heartbreaks like
