About This Track

'broken world' by blackbear is a pop punk track from the album 'in loving memory', released in 2022. In the lyrics, the singer repeats a question of where someone is now, then circles around insomnia, false reassurance, and the wish for pain to go away, even as memories keep slipping back to better days. The emotional register is restless and wounded, a plea that cannot quite settle into acceptance, captured in the line, “Where are you now?”.

"broken world" is a track by blackbear, from the album in loving memory, released 25th August 2022. The track is 3:48 long. It's filed under Pop Punk. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 1 article about blackbear.

Lyrics

broken world

Where are you now? Where are you now?
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Laying wide awake, I'll be sleeping 'til noon
People always saying their get well soon
Smiles in the pictures we use to take
I think of better times and better days
I just want the pain to go away
But when I close my eyes, I see your face
And this gravity of feeling like a stranger in my skin
It pulls me further down to Hell when I let my demons win
In a broken world
Where are you now? Where are you now?
I'm tired of this world
Pushin' me down, pushin' me down
Don't know how much I can take
This lonely heart was built to break
In a broken world
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Layin' all alone in this empty bed
Can't take back all the things we said
Anxiety creepin', it's bad again
I wonder if it's all just in my head
I can feel the pain, I'm broken in bed
I been stuck in the static you left
And this gravity of feeling like a stranger in my skin
It pulls me further down to Hell when I let my demons win
In a broken world
Where are you now? Where are you now?
I'm tired of this world
Pushin' me down, pushin' me down
Don't know how much I can take
This lonely heart was built to break
In a broken world
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Where are you now? Where are you now?
This broken world you can tell
It's gonna send me to Hell
The conversations I have
Are getting harder to sell
This broken world you can see
It's getting normal for me
To never vacate my room
It's getting harder to breath
Sick, sad and lonely
I need someone to hold me
I miss all my homies
We've grown apart so slowly
In a broken world
Where are you now? Where are you now?
I'm tired of this world
Pushin' me down, pushin' me down
Don't know how much I can take
This lonely heart was built to break
In a broken world
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Don't know how much I can take
This lonely heart was built to break
In a broken world
Where are you now? Where are you now?
