Broken By The Hurt

(album: Better Than That - 2018)

Suicide or cancer
Loss of child, betrayal, deceit
How'd not get bitter
When life kicks you in the teeth
We must all get battered
Lose our trust and self belief
Find what really matters

We're made of clay
Left long in the blaze
Fire makes us brittle
Gives us our shape
And all that remains
Two fragile flames
Dancing like Jesus
Don't come without pain

See you later
Broken by the hurt
Broken by the hurt
Broken by the hurt

Some of us blow money
Some never make it to their feet
Some born lucky, some born hopeless
We're made of clay
Left long in the blaze
Our airs and graces
Melt them away

See you later
Broken by the hurt
Broken by the hurt
Broke open by the hurt
Broke open by the hurt

We all die more than once
In this life, butterfly
Lift, lift up show me your
Hard earned love

Broken by the hurt
Broken by the hurt
Broken by the hurt
Broke open by the hurt
Opened by the hurt

We must die (Broken by the hurt)
More than once
In this life, butterfly (Broken by the hurt)
Lift, lift up
Show me your (Broken by the hurt)
Hard earned love
Broken by the hurt
Opened by the hurt
Opened by the hurt
Opened by the hurt
Opened by the hurt
Opened by the hurt
Opened by the hurt
