Broken


I am damaged on the inside
My soul don’t quite work true
There are foul spots on my right side
And my wrong side’s looking cruel

I am broken on the upside
Spirit’s broken down
There’s downsides to this arrangement
But I’m hanging in for now

Broken, damaged, injured,
Wounded, cracked, beat-up
Somehow we are all the same
So down we must look up

You know what I am feeling
Cause you are broken too
You’re hiding it away from me
I'm hiding this from you

There are people who are dying
Those who need my care
Seems “my give-a-damn” is busted
Can’t quite seem to care

Broken, damaged, injured,
Wounded, cracked, beat-up
Somehow we are all the same
So down we must look up

Broken, but I want to be whole
Damaged, and needing repair
Wounded, but desiring healing
Injured, and lacking care

The wounds that I am feeling
I can’t heal on my own
Heaven come and help me now
As on my knees I groan

Ten Thousand angels never
Would be enough to heal
The damage done by demons
Who are biting at my heels

Broken, damaged, injured,
Wounded, cracked, beat-up
Somehow we are all the same
So down we must look up
