Smiling and laughing with joy
Minutes later wanting to break down and cry
Fun and jokes, pain and loss
Reminders of the things I once had but that have since been ripped away from me
Please help to heal my broken heart

So proud, so proud of all of you!
Great job! Nice solo! Awesome horn! Amazing singing!
Oh, thanks! Hahaha!

A glimpse of a kind, sweet person I thought had disappeared
Smiles, memes, a jumble of clarinets of various sizes
Got your part down? Okay good!
Over to the gym, here we go
A gym that has become a stage for the night
I enjoy the concert, but I've still fallen apart
Please help to heal my broken heart

The memories, they sting
But I don't allow them to stab too hard anymore
One year ago, I was in heaven;
Now, I don't know where I am
But I've lost so much
So many things have changed
Flipped my world upside down
Please help to heal my broken heart

I'm okay. Am I? I am okay. But also not okay.
For tonight I am here with my friends
But I want to enjoy this more
I sort of do enjoy it, but my heart remains lonely and dissatisfied
I feel happy for a moment, but I am helplessly sad
What I wish I could have is no longer real
Please help to heal my broken heart

Beautiful music
I play it in band
I sit and listen to the senior choir sing it
My eyes close as the voices sing
And I imagine my hand being held
And a warm body close, leaning on mine
Too late for that; too late, too late
It's too late for that; I threw it all away
Please help to heal my broken heart

A face in the senior choir
A face I see that makes me sick to look at
Not her fault, not her fault
She doesn't make me sick
But she does
She has taken what I wished, what I still wish, to have just for myself
When did I become this selfish?
The face that has replaced me, that innocent face that makes me feel so sick
It's not her fault
Please help to heal my broken heart

Please help to heal my broken heart
I'm broken, I'm human
I want to feel loved
My heart can't take much more of this
Big concert night, great concert
I should have been more happy about it
But now I just want the school year to be over
I want all of it to be over
All of the pain, heartbreak, rejection
Let it go away
Let me go away
Or help my broken heart to heal
Please
