Lyrics

Broken nights, broken days
Broken leaves on broken trees
Broken treaties, broken vows
Broken hands on broken ploughs
Ain't use in runnin', honey
Ain't no use talkin'
Nothing's workin'
Everything's broken
Broken lives, hangin' by the thread
Broken bones in a broken bed
Broken mirror, broken charm
Broken roads, don't know where
Broken words
Never meant to be spoken
Can't help it, honey
Everything's broken
I sent you roses once
Some hot but suitable degree
Sent you roses, someone else must have received
Broken clock on a broken wall
Broken voices in a broken hall
Broken beginnings, broken ends
Streets are filled with broken hearts
Take a deep breath, baby
Feel like you're choking
Tell me the truth now
Everything's broken
Seem in a picture once coming in from the door
Said you had hoped I looked at you
If I get to be at all
Broken flesh on a broken floor
Broken key on a broken door
Broken idols, broken heroes
Broken numbers and left the zeros
Hound dogs howling
Bull-frogs croaking
It ain't easy, baby
Everything's broken
Written by: Bob Dylan
