To me this song is a love song at it’s base, but you can reach deeper into it and find out about the singer and his personal life and his problems.
And I’d give up forever to touch you ‘Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You are viewing: When Everything’s Meant To Be Broken Lyrics
This is showing how much he enjoys her company -he;d give up forever to TOUCH her! Because he believes she understands him
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
This is self deprecating, he doesn’t believe he’ll go to heaven and he thinks she is so much better than him
And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life And sooner or later it’s over I just don’t wanna miss you tonight

He’s caught in the moment, he knows it has to end but he wants it to last at least for the night,
And I don’t want the world to see me ‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand When everything’s meant to be broken I just want you to know who I am
He was hiding from the world, because he thinks that they’d all judge him, but in a world where everything is broken and everything is terrible he found her, who he can open up to and he wants her to know who he is as he trusts her not to judge him
And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t coming
He’s used to fighting tears, he cries most, if not every night, but here with her he’s not. She makes him happy.
Or the moment of truth in your lies

I’m caught on this, I think there are two possible meanings:
- Talking to her is his moment of truth in a lifetime of lies about everything.
- Even though he tries to tell her his usual lies he finds the truth just coming out.
When everything feels like the movies Yeah you bleed just to know you’re alive
I think this is something he told her. That sometimes he feels disconnected and numb and cut off -the way you do when watching a movie. He self harms to make himself feel alive, because even pain is better than not feeling.
I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am
I think this is repeated to really get it in our heads that all he wants is for her to know who he is.
So I think this song is about a person who has gone through, or currently has depression, who is messed up right now and afraid and hiding from everyone and basically has a lot of issues. He’s finally found someone to talk to, who he feels understands him and he has fallen in love with her. This is his song to her.
