lyrics

You ripped my heart out, oh

Stone cold solid, unbreakable

Heart locked, guarded, impenetrable

I was reigning queen till you claimed my throne

King of hearts, you held me under siege

Cracked open my chest and looted everything

My heart’s exposed and it’s barely beating

You ripped my heart out, oh

Broke down every wall of this fortress

Held my love hostage

Collector of hearts, now you discard mine

Cut all of your ties, crossed over the bridge, and set it alight

But you’re gonna miss me babe

You're gonna miss me babe

You're gonna miss me babe

You're gonna miss me

You ripped my heart out, oh
