Broken Songs

She tried to explain it to him
But he just couldn't understand
Or why she didn't want to
Just grab a hold of his hand
This feeling that she felt
Was like carefully walking along
And suddenly a trap door opens
Where she falls where she doesn't belong
And the sounds that now surround her
Echo pains of everything wrong
And the only sense it makes
Amounts to words in broken songs
Broken songs
Broken songs
Her world felt like just another
Broken song
With him it has always been
A broken song
He knew that if she would only
grab onto his hand
And allow herself to be pulled
She'd hear what he always knew
That the brokenness was beautiful
