The girl's a fool, she broke the rules, she hurt him hard
This time he will break down
She's lost his trust and so she must know all is lost
The system has broke down
Romance has broke down
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broken down
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broke down
She plays it hard, she plays it tough
But that's enough, the love is over
She's broke his heart and that is rough
But in the end he'll soon recover
The romance is over
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broken down, yeah yeah

When you're not around this old town

i love this song for its catchyness but i have NO IDEA wad its trying to get at!
haha actually i wanted to know wad the meaning was myself. i really have no clue either
I think it's straightforward - it's about a guy and a girl. The guy cheats on her ("she broke the rules, she hurt him hard" and "he's lost his trust and so she must know all is lost"). He's completely crushed over the matter, but tells himself he'll get better. Then he goes to the town where the two lived - it seems he's still living there - and all the places remind him of her. In short, he's "broke down" and missing her.
On another note, I hope people know this is a cover of Phil Lynott's song (he's from Thin Lizzy).
Oh I just knew this was the cover. But I really enjoy their cover, especially the played live on mtv unplugged. Gosh it was years past, I was still in elementary school. Yeah it's pretty straightforward. One question, whom the "I" refering to? Is it "the girl", or, another girl who have loved "the boy" secretly while he had relationship with "the girl" who made his heart broken?
