Peter Himmelman Easy To Be Broken
[Verse 1]
I got a thousand questions for God and man I got a head full of answers I can't understand
How the lies grow fat the children get crushed, the static gets applause and the truth gets hushed
We live our lives in stoned anticipation
Somewhere along the line we've lost our ticket home
[Chorus]
It's so easy to be broken, it's so hard to be alone
[Verse 2]
Everyone's cravin' what nobody needs, just killin' time while our innocence bleeds
You and I are jumpin' madly tryin' to rise above a world of decay and the wreckage of love
But you know we'd lay our morals down in fire
For the filthy little dream they toss us like a bone
[Chorus]
It's so easy to be broken, it's so hard to be alone
It's so easy to be broken, it's so easy to be broken down
[Verse 3]
There's a woman in the alley sleepin' by the trash, dreamin' 'bout her daddy and fists full of cash
Now they're cleanin' their pistols at the end of my block, what should I tell my daughter when she learns how to talk?
Do I tell her the that world's been built on broken promises
Do I tell her that she needs to find a heart of stone
[Chorus]
It's so easy to be broken, it's so hard to be alone
It's so easy to be broken, it's so easy to be broken
It's so easy to be broken down
It's so hard to be alone
Easy to be broken, easy to be broken
