Broken

I hear the words echoing deep within the walls

I hear the choir singing, “I Surrender All”

I feel the moment pulling fully at my heart

I feel emotions swell, but I won’t let the tears start

For I’m too broken for words to heal

I’m too empty for a song to fill

I need more than Sunday morning

to recover from my Saturday night

I need a whole new life

My angry disappointment haunts me like a ghost

My bitter agitation prevents what I need most

Just like a force field that won’t let the daylight in

The music radiates and bounces off my skin

For I’m too broken for words to heal

I’m too empty for a song to fill

I need more than Sunday morning 

to recover from my Saturday night

I need a whole new life

But I’m clinging to the pain that defines who I am

I’d like to let it go, but I don’t think I ever can

For I’m too broken for words to heal

I’m too empty for a song to fill

I need more than Sunday morning

to recover from my Saturday night

I need a whole new life
