Oh My Heart Lyrics

Adore this life
There is no guarantee
Could end by tomorrow
Adore every fight
An opportunity
To give back what was borrowed
Nothing’s sacred
Make it shatter
Nothing’s sacred
Fall apart

Oh my heart
Oh my heart
Come on break me in two
Oh my heart
Oh my heart
Come on break me in two

Bring on the dreams
I’m shaking with relief
Don’t miss the darker scenes
These rollercoaster screams
Are breaking my belief
That I should matter

Oh my heart
Oh my heart
Come on break me in two
Oh my heart
Oh my heart
Come on break me in two

I don’t own anything
Just this life living me
No control
Refugee
Just this life
Living me
I don’t know anything
Just this life loving me
No control
Refugee
Just this life
Living me

Oh my heart
Oh my heart
Come on break
Come on break
Come on break

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.

Tim Booth said in a concert he gave in Mexico that this song was about having your heart broken so it could turn into something more beautful like a butterfly.
