Maddie and Tae released Die from a Broken Heart in 2018 as a track for their upcoming sophomore album.
“The past two years have been a little rough for us. And we wrote this song around the hardest part when we didn’t have a record deal, had no idea what the next steps of our career were, but also we were going through really different hardships personally. And we wrote this song right in the midst of the chaos,” Marlow said. “I think that’s why the lyrics are so raw. We wanted it to feel really conversational because we were having those conversations with our parents almost every day during that season of our lives. And so, it’s made us stronger and better, but singing this song and hearing it brings us back to that moment every single time.”

Die from a Broken Heart Lyrics
Hey mama, how do you get a red wine stain out of your favorite dress?
Black mascara off a pillow case
Cure one too many headaches
Mama can I come and maybe stay a few days?
This weekend and next
And hey, how do you get a red wine stain out of your favorite dress?
How does he sleep at night?
Mama the nerve of this guy
To leave me so easy
Am I gonna be alright?
I wanna kick myself for falling so hard
Mama can you die from a broken heart?
Can you ask daddy if he’s got time to come and look at my front door?
It got slammed last night
And now it don’t close right
And just promise that you won’t tell him everything and keep that pistol in the drawer
Mama please don’t say I’m gonna laugh about this someday
You didn’t see the way he drove away
How does he sleep at night?
Mama the nerve of this guy
To leave me so easy
Am I gonna be alright?
I wanna kick myself for falling so hard
Mama can you die from a broken heart?
Ooh, broken heart
Can your knees give out from praying so hard?
Can you go blind from crying in the dark?
Was it ever really real
If he don’t feel like I feel?
How does he sleep at night?
Mama the nerve of this guy
To leave me so easy
Am I gonna be alright?
How does he sleep at night?
Mama the nerve of this guy
To leave me so easy
Am I gonna be alright?
I wanna kick myself for falling so hard
Mama can you die from a broken heart?
A broken heart
