I know you want to be my almost instant karma
I know you want to be the one that made me pay
I know you think you are the one that made me break
I was broken when you met me, I’m finding pieces every day
I know you want to be my almost nervous breakdown
I know you really want to give me all your pain
I know you think you are the one that knocked me down
You think you made me lose my mind, I think you better get in line
I know deep down you really want to punish me
For the way I used to be, yeah
I don’t blame you for being angry
I treated you bad, you wasted time, you tried too hard
You fell for the man who broke his own heart
Whoa
I’m the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I know you want to be my “wish I never met you”
I know you want to be the worst thing in my life
I know you think you are the reason I can’t sleep at night
I wish I was that simple, I’ve been like this for my whole life
I hope someday you will see me as I really am
A sad and twisted man
I tried to be just what you wanted me to be
I lied to you, I played the part
You fell for the man who broke his own heart
Whoa
I’m the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I’m the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I hope someday you will come to see
I am not the scary monster
You have made me out to be
I don’t blame you for being angry
I treated you bad, you wasted time
You tried too hard
You fell for the man who broke his own heart
Whoa
I’m the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart
I'm the man who broke his own heart

“I felt like making reparations, but reparations on my terms. I was just exploring that a little bit from a personal point of view, but it’s not autobiographical – there’s a lot of things I’ve taken from other relationships I’ve seen.”
