[Verse 1] My heart is heavy, shattered on the floor I can’t find the strength to pick it up anymore I watch the happy couples as they pass me on the street Walking in a rhythm that I know I’ll never meet I’m longing to connect like two magnets to a pole But a hollow kind of empty has taken up my soul Because unlike their attraction, guided north and south The bitter taste of loneliness is heavy in my mouth My heart is just a fragment, a single, lonely pole Repelling every feeling that could ever make me whole. [Chorus] Every time I walk, every time I try Every time I’m searching for a reason not to cry Every time I belong, or I say "good morning" too I’m looking for a version of a heart that’s broken too Maybe then this aching soul will finally start to mend If I can find a shattered piece on which I can depend A single, lonely pole-the opposite of mine Maybe two broken pieces can finally align. [Verse 2] Repelling all the joy and the things that made me glad Every time I think of it, it only drives me sad I’m a stray electric current, I’m a wire in the rain Trying to find a circuit that can handle all this pain The world is pulling closer, but I’m pushing it away Just a magnetic shadow at the ending of the day. [Chorus] Every time I walk, every time I try Every time I’m searching for a reason not to cry Every time I belong, or I say "good morning" too I’m looking for a version of a heart that’s broken too Maybe then this aching soul will finally start to mend If I can find a shattered piece on which I can depend A single, lonely pole-the opposite of mine Maybe two broken pieces can finally align. [Outro] Whoa-oh-oh-oh Whoa-oh-oh-oh Sing for the pieces that are scattered in the light Sing for the ones who want to belong tonight Maybe then we'll gravitate, a north and a south Without the bitter words inside a lonely mouth Maybe then these shattered hearts can finally find a home No longer forced to wander, no longer left to roam Maybe then we’ll find a home.
