This is the Heartache Lyrics

Yeah yeah yeah

Just look at him laughing out loud
The life of the party
And look at me trying to be strong
Fightin' the tears
How can he stand there acting like we never even happened

So this is the heartache I've heard about
The part of love I could live without
Giving it all, loving in vain
This is the heartache I've heard about
A great future behind me now
As the memories run down my face
This is the heartache

It's not like me to become
A wall decoration
But here in the corner at least
All eyes aren't on me
So that's the new girl that he's seein'
I think it's time I should be leavin'

So this is the heartache I've heard about
The part of love I could live without
Givin' it all, lovin in vain
This is the heartache I've heard about
A great future behind me now
As the memories run down my face
This is the heartache

Is love only a trick of the night
An illusion done mirrors, smoke and light

Hoah, so this is the heartache I've heard about
The part of love I could live without
Giving it all, lovin in vain
This is the heartache I've heard about
A great future behind me now
As the memories run down my face
This is the heartache
This is the heartache
This is the heartache

This is the heartache

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
