Broken Bones

(album: The General Strike - 2012)

Broken bones and broken glass ,
Broken hearts and broken heads.
Living the life.

Close my eyes try to make it last.

Outrun the wretched memories of my past.
It moves too fast.
I got no chance

A freight train racing set to crash.

Broken bones and broken glass ,
Broken hearts and broken heads.
Living the life.

Wake up wondering: “How' did I get here?”
Then cross my heart and say a fucking prayer.
Ecstasy, tears, bravery, fears,

This boat may float, but it don't steer.

Broken bones and broken glass ,
Broken hearts and broken heads.
Living the life.

Life's long and winding roads leading us
To a never ending trail to keep our youth.

It flashes by in lessons painfully attained.
Blood and sweat, black and blue,
Some surrender I got nothing' to surrender to.

Broken bones and broken glass ,
Broken hearts and broken heads.
Living the life.

So now you're living.
So now you're living.

Broken bones and broken glass ,
Broken hearts and broken heads.
Living the life.

Close my eyes try to make it last,

Outrun the wretched memories of my past.
