Chris Cornell - Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart (official)

LYRICS
Every time I stare into the sun
Trying to find a reason to go on
All I ever get is burned and blind
Until the sky bleeds the pouring rain
When you came along the time was right
Pulled me like an apple red and ripe
Wasn't very long you took a bite
And did me wrong, and it serves me right
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again, again
Every little key unlocks the door
Every little secret has a lie
Tryna take a picture of the sun
And it won't help you to see the light
Every little word upon your lips
Makes a little cut where blood pours out
Every little drop of blood a kiss that I won't miss
Not for anything
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
Here we go round again
Here we go round again
Here we go round again
Rest In Peace, dear Chris xxx

[@DonaldVerkler]

❤ thanks..... Chris is the shit! Stinks

[@camf8372]

He is dearly missed. We must be very grateful for his music from Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Audioslave and his solo career. He's an influence to all of us, even those who don't play music, his voice transcends in the hearts and eyes of many

[@NigoMavarro]

I'm so glad they put this back on KZbin. Thanks

[@johnjohnson2180]

I was very fortunate to be able to play Chris Jr's dad in this video, but when he passed, the WAY he passed... it left me feeling really strange. To this day it does. I'm still not sure I can explain the feeling exactly. It was my best day in the business... then it was my saddest. JV

[@Metallic-Sun]

I think it's freaky that his son saw him hung and Chris died in a similar way. My dad died the same way, as Chris, 20 years earlier.

[@johnlimpkin]

How do you get 9 broken ribs and play a full set at a show, something was off. Kinda strange

[@kdvincent1982]

Died. He died

[@meitsme7115]

@@johnlimpkin the broken ribs came from the "CPR" after the show. Which doesn't make any sense to give a person who is clearly no longer with us CPR. It's not very common, but some people do get a broken rib or 2 from CPR.... but 9!? That's a hard no.

[@user-vb6bv8id1e]

@@meitsme7115 We all know it wasn't suicide.

I saw Chris (solo) 5 times and with Soundgarden once. He left us too soon. A magician and poet with his words - he lives in our hearts.

[@aspjake123]

Oh that is so awesome. I never seen Chris perform live, you are very fortunate!

[@ralphcantrell3214]

Chris is possibly my favorite rock vocalist of all time. He was very special, and there is no possible way to replace him.

[@awaken77]

RIP Chris Cornell. One of the best modern rock singers, so powerful voice

[@wheelchair_charlie]

I believe he suffered from depression, probably from young adulthood. Listen to the lyrics in most of his songs. Depression is like an invisible snake that slowly squeezes you until there's no life left to go on. I see it now in his amazing songs. Consciously or unconsciously he sung about it. That's the sad part of being a artistic genius. It bubbles up from the unknown and shows up in their work almost like a possession until expressed. Unfortunately Chris couldn't exorcise his demons :(

[@marushkaSR]

Wainman Studios very well said...

[@SultanofKick]

Perhaps he was in so deep that leaving this world in the manner in which he did was the only way to exorcise those demons.

[@jeffersonaraujoelcristiano]

So he didn't repent in his last day or hour and gave his heart to the lord Jesus Christ?

[@stevewalters6853]

[@1110karin]

Can't believe this was deleted because it shows no disrespect - it was something Chris Cornell did and though I found it disturbing when I watched it a few years ago his art did imitate his life sad to say. Beautiful man - great voice and so sad but it should not be deleted.

[@gonzopersona]

Agree

[@matthewblaine3464]

It was deleted at his family’s discretion. If you’re family memeber allegedly hung himself, would you wanna watch it all over the internet?

[@1110karin]

Then they shouldn't watch. His song PRETTY NOOSE is still on the internet and most of his music was really dark, no use to wipe away his story.

[@suryaananda8362]

I love you Chris. You’ve helped me & still do to this day.

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭13: 37‭-‬43‬ Jesus replied, “The Son of Man is the farmer who plants the good seed. The field is the world, and the good seed represents the people of the Kingdom. The weeds are the people who belong to the evil one. The enemy who planted the weeds among the wheat is the devil. The harvest is the end of the world, and the harvesters are the angels. “Just as the weeds are sorted out and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the world. The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will remove from his Kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. And the angels will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in their Father’s Kingdom. Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand!" ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭12: 10‭-‬12‬ "Then I heard a loud voice saying in Heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”

to me, I go deeper into the lyrical part, that tells a story......was he truly happy with Vicky? or just existing....then put the video into play....and the facts that have now been established...... that is all. please leave this video up. thank you.

[@mathilda163]

About removing this video.. I watched this one for the first time (and i watched many other videos that night.. ) in the hours right after i learned the terrible news.. It touched me first of all because to me it really showed his amazing voice, sensitivity.. When the circumstances of his death came out it felt weird.. (with regards to this video). Today i think - to remove it just feels wrong - wouldn't it be also about removing all videos (Chrisses, and many other great artists that we lost in the past..) with lyrics with regards to depression, addiction, suicidal thoughts? To me it's a piece of art. My heart goes out to his three girls.. his family and real friends..i can't imagine their loss..
