1,000 Pieces Lyrics

Break my heart

You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart

You, you always say you will never be happy
And you, I tried to tell you that you'd be sorry
And I, I tried to hold on just as long as I could
But I, I couldn't take it so I had to move on

You broke my heart in all the right places
In ways that I could never understand
Anymore I can't see you
And I can't feel you in my hands
The warmth, the touch
The feeling like I'll never hold you again
Again

You, you were so selfish that you wouldn't look at me
You, you tried to feed me of all your misery
And I, I tried to hold on just as long as I could
But I, I couldn't take it so I had to move on

You broke my heart in all the right places
In ways that I could never understand
Anymore I can't see you
And I can't feel you in my hands
The warmth, the touch
The feeling like I'll never hold you again

Never hold you again...

You break my heart in a thousand pieces
You break my heart in a thousand pieces
A thousand pieces

You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart
My heart
Break my heart

Break my heart

You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart

You, you always say you will never be happy
And you, I tried to tell you that you'd be sorry
And I, I tried to hold on just as long as I could
But I, I couldn't take it so I had to move on

You broke my heart in all the right places
In ways that I could never understand
Anymore I can't see you
And I can't feel you in my hands
The warmth, the touch
The feeling like I'll never hold you again
Again

You, you were so selfish that you wouldn't look at me
You, you tried to feed me of all your misery
And I, I tried to hold on just as long as I could
But I, I couldn't take it so I had to move on

You broke my heart in all the right places
In ways that I could never understand
Anymore I can't see you
And I can't feel you in my hands
The warmth, the touch
The feeling like I'll never hold you again

Never hold you again...

You break my heart in a thousand pieces
You break my heart in a thousand pieces
A thousand pieces

You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart
You break my heart
My heart
Break my heart

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.
