If Tust Is Broken
Heideroosjes · Other Songs - Heideroosjes
My world stopped turning and all I can ask is "why?"
I could forgive you, confess here and now
But I can't deal with lies, why break our vow?
If trust is broken, I don't care what's left (x4)
Like a wounded soldier, crawling to find some shelter
A mind filled with anger, a body lost in welter
It's no longer in my hands, I wanna speak up but I'm broken
Yet with this stab in my back, the truth needs to be spoken
If trust is broken, I don't care what's left (x4)
If Tust Is Broken
Heideroosjes' 'If Tust Is Broken' stands as a defining track within the Dutch new wave and synth-pop landscape of the 1990s. The song exemplifies the genre's characteristic blend of melancholic melodies and driving electronic rhythms, capturing the emotional volatility often explored by the artist during this era. Released alongside other notable works such as 'Who's There For Me' and 'Do You Wanna Die?', the recording reflects a period of intense creativity where Heideroosjes pushed the boundaries of traditional pop structures. The track's enduring appeal lies in its ability to convey complex feelings of disillusionment and resilience through its distinctive production and lyrical themes, cementing its place in the catalog of Dutch music history.
