Broken Lyrics
Credit to @muldur for the transcription.
I know you don’t wanna say goodbye yet, but she can’t survive here with just a petal
You still have one wish but it’d be useless, more than roses have died in this desert.
Child, it seems that younger and younger, they start to wipe your minds clean. But how, I wonder, just barely under, do your eyes
continue sparkling?
And i-i-i-i-i never want to open up your eyes, everything’s broken.
and i-i-i-i-i never want to open up your heart, everything’s broken.
I don’t understand why they are gone, or what reason there is to be strong.
I still try to love but I’m in a place where doing what’s right is so wrong.
But if you see me ignore the gun, we are still fighting for life.
Heeeerrrre’s our wish just to exist in more than our eyes.
And i i i i never want to open up your eyes, everything’s broken.
and i i i i never want to open up your heart, everything’s broken.
Do you see what I see? Do you feel what I feel?
It doesn’t matter until we see broken lives heal
Do you see what I see? Do you feel what I feel?
It doesn’t matter until we see broken lives heal
ohhh ohhh ohhhh ohhh ohhhh
oh noooo, oohhhh, oh oh ohoh yeah, (yeah).
And i i i i found it hard to open up my mouth, will they hear what’s spoken?
but i i i i saw when i opened up my eyes, invisible children.
Broke, but not broken.
Broke, but not broken

FYI For some reason, my “Broken” was not a free gift. I had to purchase it after pre-ordering BEGIN. I’m not complaining. It was worth it. Just wanted to let you know in case it can be fixed for others–if it is really meant to be “free”.

Betty, there are 2 “Begin”s on iTunes to choose from (so typical in David-land, lol). One is BEGIN. and the other is listed as Begin. Only BEGIN. has the instant download and that is the one linked above and on the Official Site. Can you tell me which “BEGIN.” you pre-ordered from?

Hello! I have a US iTunes account but I don’t know how to put money into it. If anyone is kind enough to gift me with a copy of David’s album, I will be really happy!

“Broken” is such a masterpiece! It’s David in his element. He did an exquiste job writing the music. The lyrics , even though David didn’t write them, are so emotional, deep, and beautiful. How wonderful that David sang this song with Invisible Children in mind. I think it was Kari who tweeted a few days ago that “Broken” meant a great deal to David. Oh, the day David sings this song in concert will be a time of tears, and bliss for sure! The medics will have to be called with the archupaddles, LOL!!! WE LOVE YOU DAVID!!!!
