Broken Like Me (Acoustic)

(앨범: Simmer Down (Acoustic) - 2020)

I used to shop like a neurotic cop
Checking dates and shapes, I couldn't stop
Ingredients, reviews, and every tag
The color, shape, and size I'd check
Feel for bruises, sniff and peck
Only flawless specimens I'd bag

Like a fly drowned in the salad
A cracked egg in the dozen
Coffee drips on a wedding dress
Or a hot date with a cousin

You're just a little twisted
You're just a little damaged
You're just a little not right
You're just a little broken
Just a little broken
Like me

When we first met my mind was set
Building hopes and dreams I couldn't get
Built a pedestal so high I couldn't see
Your perfection I projected
Elaborate plans my head protected
Till you smashed up my misplaced fantasies

You're just a little twisted
You're just a little damaged
You're just a little not right
You're just a little broken
You'll never score a perfect
You'll never be a spokesman
You'll never win the title
You're just a little broken
Just a little broken
Just a little broken
Like me

You and me, we're not alone
The world is filled with damaged souls
We're flawed and doomed but getting by
One more try, one more try
One more try

Like a fly drowned in the salad
A cracked egg in the dozen
Coffee drips on a wedding dress
Or a hot date with a cousin

You're just a little twisted
You're just a little damaged
You're just a little not right
You're just a little broken
You'll never score a perfect
You'll never be a spokesman
You'll never win the title
You're just a little broken
Just a little broken
Just a little broken
Like me
