Something's Broken




Something's Broken,
Down inside,
Pieces lost and replaced,
with second hand parts,
I tore out of a doll.

Lost a piece on a slanting street,
Had it punched out,
Now it's gone,
I haven't replaced it yet.

Lost a piece walking away,
Fell out on the ground,
Rolled into the gutter,
I found that piece again.

Lost a piece amidst the beats,
Knocked loose with the jumping,
Was crushed beyond repair,
I stole my friend's away.

Lost a piece over the phone,
Soaked up into the carpets,
With my tears,
I never needed that piece.

Lost a piece in a massive hall,
Already broken long ago,
And caught ablaze,
It never worked in the first place.
