Died from a broken heart

Dying of a broken heart means to die from extreme sadness, grief and hopelessness. Commonly death by a broken heart occurs in romantic relationships, though can also be the result of a loss of intimate emotional attachment(s), rejection, deaths of family or friends or severe betrayal. Though in literary terms symptoms are easy listed, the true experience of suffering of a broken heart is indescribable according to those who have experienced it firsthand.
Perhaps because it is an experience such as loss or love; It can only be understood if felt.
(I.e. A man's wife dies in a disastrous fire. Even though he tries to save her he is not able to get to her in time. Days go by and he has not eaten or slept or tried to contact family or friends. And work has failed to contact him, inquiring about his prolonged absence. Day and night he sits silently on the floor. At times crying hysterically and other times punching the walls and having violent fits. Within a week or a few days after, he dies from the overbearing and crushing grief of the loss of his beloved. Hence, "Died from a broken heart."
Once when I was young I watched a TV program that depicted young man and woman who fell in love rather quickly. It has been a long time since I saw the program, after it was six years ago. She left him, saying something along the lines of "we can't be together or she did not love him anymore." He spent three days wallowing in extreme grief, feeling rejected, alone and hopeless. After these three days he dies. If I am not mistaken it was a made up story. They traced its' origins and found the story to be mostly true. This man apparently "Died from a broken heart" according to the medical examiner and his apartment manager.

Brokencyde

A group who after having listened to them is the only good reason to commit suicide. A group that's like an aural and visual train wreck...you don't want to look but you did...you want to take your eyes off...but you can't. A group whose music is surely a sign that America is going straight down the drain and will surely fall in the years to come because the youth of America, our future leaders and such, are a bunch of retarded monkeys who actually let this shit get popular.
Hey, did you hear, Tommy committed suicide?

Oh, man...what a shame. The selfish prick.

No, it was a reasonable suicide. He listened to Brokencyde and couldn't get that crap out of his head.

Yep, makes sense to me.

broken toys

A 'broken toy' is a synonym for fuck-up, loser, or wreck. Broken toys tend to be people with a history of psychological trauma and a propensity for drug use and reckless behavior.

More specifically, broken toys can refer to women who are fragile or easily manipulated. Some men aim only for broken toys, whether out of sadistic glee, the ease with which they'll jump into bed with somebody, or a foolish and altruistic desire to fix them.
R: Man, this party is full of broken toys.
S: You gonna game on any of them?
R: Shit, that'd be like shooting fish in a barrel.

brokencyde

A wigger crunk group, they have two people they show the most, more the screamer who is the crunk singer meaning he's going to be shouting shit like "FUCK YOU" in there. Imagine Drake or Jay Sean, then imagine Lil Jon screaming while they're singing, thats Brokencyde. They have two other members who don't show up as often, but they're better then the main members which makes you wonder if they're not featured as much to make the main two guys look bad.

But, yah they're wigger incarnate, they aren't Paul Wall where at least he has some street cred and respect, they're just suburban kids with chains talking about having a hard life and sex.
Oh Baby I love you WRAAAAAAAGGGGGGH IMMA STICK MA DICK IN YA MOUTH Oh lemme touch you! FUCKING BITCH SUCK MY DICK - perfect example of a made up Brokencyde song.
