A really cool, country-rock song about getting over a breakup... I think everyone will be able to relate to this one!

Story behind the song
This song means a lot to me because I believe that there is a reason for every break up, and sometimes the relationship is "better off broken". The song embodies a lot of things, though... It's about the feeling of being reminded of a past relationship everywhere you turn, trying to get over that person, and then having them come back after it's too late. At that point, letting them back in will only make it hurt worse. I hope you love this song as much as I do! As soon as I heard it, I knew I had to record it.
Lyrics
This damned old radio Hasn't worked in over two weeks And I don't plan to get it fixed Anyways it'd probably play one of what used to be our songs And once those tears start settin' in I'd just kick it again Chorus: It's better off broken Who needs it anyway? It'll only remind me Of you walkin' away And it slowly Is gettin' better every day But if a song on the radio Is enough to break these wounds wide open Then it's better off broken This old heart of mine Is still beatin' on in tune It sure ain't what it used to be Thought you were good as gone Now you're knockin' on my door Askin' me to take you back again Well I'm sorry, but I can't let you in Chorus: It's better off broken I can't feel it anyway It's completely numb inside of me Since you went away And it slowly Is gettin' better every day And now you wanna come back Want a second chance--help this heart to mend Well, it's better off broken Like those empty promises you made Baby, it's too late-- Now you wanna come back? Forget that...
