Miley Cyrus [1] is getting us in our feelings with her latest album, Plastic Hearts. Ever since the 28-year-old dropped the rocky-heavy album on 27th Nov., fans have been raving about the devastating lyrics and emotional ballads. As she recounts heartbreak and past loves throughout the album, you can't help but feel a tinge of sadness with each and every lyric. After the mess that 2020 has been, the album is quite literally the perfect note to end on as we sob-sing to tracks like "Angels Like You" and scream-cry to songs like "WTF Do I Know." In honour of the bittersweet masterpiece that is Plastic Hearts, we've rounded up all the most emotional lyrics, just in case you ever need a good cry.
"WTF Do I Know"
- "Am I wrong that I moved on and I / And I don't even miss you? / Thought that it'd be you until I die / But I let go."
- "What the f*ck do I know? I'm alone / Guess I couldn't be somebody's hero."
"Plastic Hearts"
- "Pull you in but don't you get too close / Love you now but not tomorrow."
- "I just wanna feel / I just wanna feel something / But I keep feeling nothing all night long."
"Angels Like You"
- "The more that you give the less that I / Need everyone says I look happy / When it feels right."
- "I know that you're wrong for me / Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave."
- "It's not your fault I ruin everything / And it's not your fault I can't be what you need / Baby, angels like you can't fly down here with me."
"Prisoner"
- "You keep making it harder to stay / But I still can't run away I gotta know why can't you / Why can't you just let me go?"
"Gimme What I Want"
- "I don't need a future / I don't need your past."
"Night Crawling"
- "Sometimes I'm good for nothing / Sometimes the best you've ever had."
- "Sometimes my thoughts are violent / Sometimes they bring me to the light / Sometimes I sit in silence / Sometimes I'm running for my life."
"Midnight Sky"
- "Lotta years went by with my hands tied up in your ropes / Forever, and ever, no more."
"High"
- "Sometimes I get a little too hurt / Got my mind going places it ain't wanna go / Sometimes I get a little too low / And I can't see myself through the fire and smoke."
- "And you, like a neon light / Shining through a door that I can't keep closed / And you, like a rolling stone / Always building cities on the hearts that you broke."
- "And in my head I did my very best / Saying goodbye, goodbye / And I don't miss you but I think of you / And don't know why."
- "Sometimes I stay up all night / 'Cause you don't ever talk to me in my dreams / And I think about eventually you're holding me / And dancing to the record like a movie scene."
"Hate Me"
- "Drowning in my thoughts / Staring at the clock / And I know I'm not on your mind."
- "I wonder what would happen if I die / I hope all of my friends get drunk and high / Would it be too hard to say goodbye? / I hope that it's enough to make you cry / Maybe that day you won't hate me."
"Bad Karma"
- "They say it's bad karma bein' such a heart breaker / I've always picked a giver, 'cause I've always been the taker."
- "I never learn my lesson so I always do it twice."
"Never Be Me"
- "But if you're looking for stable, that'll be never be me / If you're looking for faithful, that'll never be me / If you're looking for someone to be all that you need / That'll never be me."
- "Dry your tears, now don't you cry / I'm by your side at least for a while."
"Golden G String"
- "I was trying to own my power / Still I'm trying to work it out / And at least it gives the papers / Something they can write about."
- "We all focus on the winners / And get blinded by their shine / Maybe caring for each other's / Just too 1969."
