This Broken Man

I thought I could just pretend
I didn't care about love
Or if you gave it back to me
I'm waiting for those golden words
That could shelter me
From the cold I feel

I should've known
Half a person couldn't make one whole
Still I pay for crimes I would never, ever commit

You tell me I'm wrong
With your promises unkept along the way
When words are not strong
All the problems have a funny way to stay
To stay

I never know who I am
And in times of war
I just don't wanna be left behind
You curse the early days we had
And wish I hadn't done
The things I did to be with you

God! You should know
Losing someone could really change your ways
What happens if the words you say now
Become the wind that will blow me far away?

And there I’ll remain
While frustration digs a canyon to contain
My darkness and pain
Will you walk the path to find this broken man?
Will you bring him back?

You tell me I'm wrong
With your promises unkept along the way
But then I’ll remain
While frustration digs a canyon to contain

My darkness and pain
Will you walk the path to find this broken man?
Will you bring me home?

I thought I could just pretend
I didn't care about love
Or if you gave it back
