Like a child's toy that doesn't work anymore
over in the corner of the room on the floor
like a train that runs away and derails off the track
it never meets it's destination and it's never goin' back

once there was a love that left in such a mess
I still need forgiveness, but don't know how to confess
put back all the pieces 'til it looked like I had healed
but I'm the only one who knows I've forgotten how to feel

forgotten how to feel
tell me what good is that
why'd I go and steal something I had
now I can' take it back
broken

used to be your lover
I used to be your friend
now I'm a deadman walkin'
not letin' anybody in
against moments of our happiness I have no defense
I guess that I was just afraid to be content

afraid to be content
tell me what good is that
why can't I just be
where I'm at
now I can't go back
broken

now we live and learn by the choices that we make
and they be returned
so we're left with what's in front of us
and all that we have given up only makes us feel
broken
