Broken
A man alone, A man unheard
never to speak a word
He is a dream, a figment
of what he used to be
A man is married, he does not care
She is his to own
He torments her, all the time
An illusion, of what he was
A mirror is broken, a mirror is shattered
Pieces of him on the floor
He is shattered, he is broken
nothing but a dream
He is shattered, he is broken
he lies on the floor
The pieces of him, what he was
before he took a drink
He beats her often, he beats her hard
She is always afraid
He tries to change; He won't change
And yet she wants to stay
"I love him so, I love him so"
Is all she ever says
Beat her rough, beat her hard
So she'll finally leave
You loved him then, you hate him now
You are wising up
He hit you then, you shot him now
You are finally safe
The courts hate you, I love you
this is our debate
They let you free, you go with me
You are finally safe.
