Lyrics
Broken
I’ve seen hard times and you have too
But you won’t tell me and I don’t tell you
Lately I’ve been thinking of telling the truth
‘Cos this heart is about to break
There’s only so much I can take
CHORUS:
Maybe it’s ok to be broken
Maybe it’s alright if I break down and cry
I’m tired of all the times I’ve convincingly spoken
Sayin’ I’m doing fine (I’m doing fine)
But maybe it’s ok to be broken
So I confess that I’ve been afraid
And it’s been so long since I have prayed
No, I don’t remember when I started losing my way
But I fell and the ground was cold
And now I need someone’s hand to hold
CHORUS
‘Cos when the heart tears into a thousand shreds
And it feels like you’ve been left for dead
In the place where you are wounded and sore
When it heals you’ll be much stronger than before, so
CHORUS
