“ On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams”

This means the person’s life has been messed up for a long time. It could also be his dreams have been shattered.

My shadow's the only one that walks beside meMy shallow heart's the only thing that's beatingSometimes I wish someone out there will find me

Til then I walk alone

This helps create the theme “ It’s better to have memories that you have experienced with others. The singer is obviously alone and has no one to do anything with.

I walk this empty streetOn the Boulevard of Broken

DreamsWhere the city sleeps

and I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk a lonely road

The only one that I have ever known

Don't know where it goes

But it's home to me and I walk alone

Both of these stanza’s from the lyrics give you the feeling of loneliness and sadness. The use of imagery and diction of the words “walking down the lonely road and empty street” makes you feel bad for the singer and makes the song a good song. This feeling is one reason why I like this song.
