Broken Man - Basement Traxx

I want to scream until no sound comes out and you've learned your lesson I want to swallow these pills to get to sleep So I don't have to make a bad impression I need to start to be myself 'Cause I'm sick of everybody else I won't let you bring me down It's here And now I'm breaking out I will learn to love again But I will stand a broken man I wanna run, but only far enough to make you miss me I wanna take back all the shit that I have done But I guess you are better off without me I need to start to be myself 'Cause I'm sick of everybody else I won't let you bring me down It's here and now I'm breaking out I will learn to love again But I will stand a broken man I took one big step and I looked away And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say I'm always too late You never got your story straight I'm always up late I think I'm everything you hate I took one big step and I looked away And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say I'm always too late You never got your story straight I'm always up late I think I'm everything you hate I took one big step and I looked away And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say I'm always too late You never got your story straight I'm always up late I think I'm everything you hate I won't let you bring me down It's here and now I'm breaking out I will learn to love again But I will stand a broken man (I took one big step and I looked away) I won't let you bring me down (And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say) It's here and now I'm breaking out (I'm always too late you never got your story straight I'm always up late I think I'm everything you hate) I will learn to love again (I took one big step then I looked away, and then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say) But I will stand a broken man (I'm always too late you never got your story straight)

Deep in the soul of a man who's seen it all - he stands alone with borrowed time Dealing with two, nothing's new but they look at you with broken backs and bleeding minds Well I don't know even though they tell me so You'll be the one who walks the line Standing tall They're so fragile But they always find you when you hide Cause you're a broken man In a broken land Cause you're a broken man In a broken land And don't they wish they were blessed like you The struggle inside your mind is a waste of time - your purest thoughts evaporate Dark clouds reveal how you feel in your idle time - your own tail becomes the bait You don't know even though your blood flows Destroy yourself, you're the one you hate Standing tall They're so fragile But they always get you when you're late Cause you're a broken man In a broken land Cause you're a broken man In a broken land And don't they wish they were blessed like you Standing tall they look so small with the world upon their shoulders But a broken man on broken land looks far beyond his brothers yeah, yeah Break for the sun you're the one, the chosen one, your time is up your time is due Cracked like a whip from the hand of a broken man to find out that he's just like you But you've seen it all, in your mind you've seen it all, you've built it up and they made it fall Because you're killing yourself and you're so fragile But they cannot crush you if you don't crawl. Now I'm a broken man In a broken land Now I'm a broken man In a broken land Now I'm a broken man In a broken land And don't they wish they were blessed like you And don't they wish they were blessed like you And don't they wish they were blessed like you And don't they wish they were blessed like you And don't they wish they were blessed like you And don't they wish they were blessed like you And don't they wish they were blessed like you

You can't take the home from a homeless man You can't take away his streets You can't threaten a man, with nothing to lose Or bruise him when he's beat You can't take money from a poor man Or scare a man with no fear You can't shame a man with no pride Or force a stone to tears What can you do to a broken man What can you do to a broken man You can't cut a man who's bleeding You can't push a man who's down You can't starve a man who's hungry Or loose him when he's found You can't break a man who's broken Or cheat a man who knows Or kill a dream that's dead And curse it when it goes What can you do to a broken man What can you do to a broken man You can't strip a man who's naked You can't defend a man who's lied You can't believe a man who's lost You can't envy a man that's cried You can't lift a man who's risen Or teach a man that knows You can't fight a man who's won Or heat a fire that burns What can you do to a broken man What can you do to a broken man
