She said, thanks but I'm broken
I guess, you must've misspoken
What a laugh, I've never been chosen
By anyone
She was barely a teen, hanging out in between
Just a part of the scene
With mercurial smile, and incurable style
She was only a dream
How's that, he didn't know a thing about
Making love to the kind of girl you read about
He said, I'm bound to be broken
My daddy bet, that I'd amount to nothing
He won't let, anybody show him anything
He was a troubled child, had been down for awhile
Always kept to himself
No she couldn't defend, he only wanted a friend
Now he's made something else
It's so sad, no one saw it coming
The paper said that he hit the ground running
Oh yeah, I know I'm not broken
A little cracked, but still I'm not broken
I wanna laugh but I think that I'm choking
On reality
When the world is turning for you don't turn on me
Who are you here to repair, well I don't know what you mean
You could never resist, for affiant* despair
Now it's coming to you, and I don't really care
While I'm not the kind to insist, you couldn't have missed
We must co-exist
So please listen to me, there is no such thing
As human debris
Oh yeah, I know I'm not broken
A little cracked, but that amounts to nothing
I wanna laugh, I'm not choking
I'm unbroken (Oh yeah, I said I'm unbroken)
I said I'm unbroken (A little cracked, it's just a token)
I'm really not broken (What a guess, I'm unbroken)
