Broken

We used to run like wolves
or was it more like wounded lambs?
we tried to hold the world
it just kept slipping through our hands

We were trying to diminish
all the hurt that was given us at birth
well ain't that just the way
cure costs more than it's worth

My god
you're so far away
though I see you
every single day

Why are we so broken?
Why are we so hollow?
Why have we not spoken
for such a long, long time?

I guess the fault is mine
but I had to numb the pain
or lose my mind
So I lost my shame
now I'll keep it until I die

Jonny, he's a madman
he burns down everything he sees
I'd like to say he's a bad man
but deep down
I know he's just like me
and Danny, he's a broken boy
a broken heart
and a broken head to boot
he's been playing Russian Roulette
for so long but that gun just won't shoot

And Aaron
he's so far away
though I see him
almost every day

Why are we so broken?
Why are we so hollow?
Why have we not spoken
for such a long, long time?

I guess the fault is mine
But I had to save my soul
or lose my mind
So I lost my friends
now I'll miss 'em 'til I die
