Broken

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

The broken clock is a comfort

It helps me sleep tonight

Maybe it can stop tomorrow

From stealing all my time

I am here still waiting

Though I still have my doubts

I am damaged at best,

Like you’ve already figured out

 

I’m falling apart,

I’m barely breathing

With a broken heart that’s still beating

In the pain there is healing

In your name I find meaning

So I’m holdin’ on, I’m holdin’ on, I’m holdin’ on

I’m barely holdin’ on to you

 

The broken locks were a warning

You got inside my head

I tried my best to be guarded,

I’m an open book instead

I still see your reflection inside of my eyes

That are looking for a purpose,

They’re still looking for life

 

I’m falling apart,

I’m barely breathing

With a broken heart that’s still beating

In the pain there is healing

In your name I find meaning

So I’m holdin’ on, I’m holdin’ on, I’m holdin’ on

I’m barely holdin’ on to you

I’m hangin’ on another day

Just to see what you will throw my way

And I’m hanging on to the words you say

You said that I will be ok

 

The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone

I may have lost my way now,

Haven’t forgotten my way home
