Broken
She said, "Thanks but I'm broken
I guess you must have misspoken
What a laugh, I've never been chosen by anyone"
She was barely a teen, hangin' out in between
Just a part of the scene
With mercurial smile and incurable style
She was only a dream
How's that, he didn't know a thing about
Makin' love to the kinda girl you read about?
He said, "I'm bound to be broken
My daddy bet that I'd amount to nothin'"
He won't let anybody show him anything
He was a troubled child
Had been down for a while
Always kept to himself
Though she couldn't defend, he only wanted a friend
Now he's made somethin' else
It's so sad, no one saw it comin'
The paper said that he hit the ground runnin'
Oh, yeah
I know I'm not broken
A little cracked, but still I'm not broken
I wanna laugh, but I think that I am chokin' on reality
When the world is turning for you, don't turn on me
Who are you here to repair?
Well, I don't know what you mean
You could never resist, glorifying despair
And now it's comin' to you and I don't really care
Well, I'm not the kind to insist
You couldn't of missed
We must co-exist
So please listen to me
There is no such thing as human debris
Oh, yeah
I know I'm not broken
A little cracked, but that amounts to nothin'
I wanna laugh
I'm not jokin'
I'm unbroken (oh yeah, I said I'm not broken)
I said I'm unbroken (a little cracked, it's just a token)
I'm really not broken (well, I guess, I'm unbroken)
I guess you must have misspoken
What a laugh, I've never been chosen by anyone"
She was barely a teen, hangin' out in between
Just a part of the scene
With mercurial smile and incurable style
She was only a dream
How's that, he didn't know a thing about
Makin' love to the kinda girl you read about?
He said, "I'm bound to be broken
My daddy bet that I'd amount to nothin'"
He won't let anybody show him anything
