Fine with the fall of a nation
Fine with the killing fields
I知 fine with the ration of power and praise to the undeserved
With a dark and gentle kiss
From the mouth of blinding bliss
I made my peace with all of this

But I知 broken
Yes I知 broken by you
By the bend and the sway of you
Yes I知 broken
Broken by you
By the give and the take of you


Fine with the birthing of malice
Fine with degeneration
Fine with the callus common stranger痴 reserve
With a dark and gentle kiss
From the mouth of blinding bliss
I made my peace with all of this

But I知 broken
Yes I知 broken by you
By the bend and the sway of you
Yes I知 broken
Broken by you
By the give and the take of you


Broken by holding on
Broken by letting go
Broken by walking the line that bends
With a gentle kiss
From the mouth of blinding bliss
I made my peace with all of this

But I知 broken
Yes I知 broken by you
By the bend and the sway of you
Yes I知 broken
Broken by you
By the give and the take of you
