Broken Men
Drinking forties in paper bags
We had to watch each other's backs
Nights were cold our hearts were colder
Younger, crazier, and bolder
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Never expected much of us
No institutions we could trust
With no future and a broken past
Praying that each night would last
Broken kids
From broken homes
Now we're grown men
With families of our own
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Broken kids
From broken homes
Now we're grown men
With families of our own
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Hungry wolves on every corner
An adult world on teenage shoulders
Snakes hiding in the grass
Concrete, metal, bricks, and glass
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Truth comes out in drips and drabs
Love and support we never had
Different scars and different chains
Different fears but the same pain
Broken kids
From broken homes
Now we're grown men
With families of our own
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Wolves led straight to a slaughter
Sometimes victims become monsters
It might seem plain as law
That those who wanted to see saw
Broken kids
We're broken men
Truth comes out in drips and drabs
Some questions just must be asked
I never saw and I never heard
For that I offer you my word
We had to watch each other's backs
Nights were cold our hearts were colder
Younger, crazier, and bolder
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Never expected much of us
No institutions we could trust
With no future and a broken past
Praying that each night would last
Broken kids
From broken homes
Now we're grown men
With families of our own
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Broken kids
From broken homes
Now we're grown men
With families of our own
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Hungry wolves on every corner
An adult world on teenage shoulders
Snakes hiding in the grass
Concrete, metal, bricks, and glass
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Truth comes out in drips and drabs
Love and support we never had
Different scars and different chains
Different fears but the same pain
Broken kids
From broken homes
Now we're grown men
With families of our own
We were broken kids
We're broken men
Wolves led straight to a slaughter
Sometimes victims become monsters
It might seem plain as law
That those who wanted to see saw
Broken kids
We're broken men
Truth comes out in drips and drabs
Some questions just must be asked
I never saw and I never heard
For that I offer you my word
