Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Deep in the soul of a man who's seen it all
He stands alone with borrowed time
Dealing with two, nothing's new but they look at you
With broken backs and bleeding minds
[Verse 2]
Well, I don't know even though they tell me so
You'll be the one who walks the line
Standing tall, they're so fragile
But they always find you when you hide
[Chorus]
'Cause you're a broken man
In a broken land
'Cause you're a broken man
In a broken land
[Chorus]
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
[Verse 3]
The struggle inside of your mind is a waste of time
Your purest thoughts evaporate
Dark clouds reveal how you feel in your idle time
Your own tail becomes the bait
[Verse 4]
You don't even know even though your blood flows
Destroy yourself, you're the one you hate
Standing tall, they're so fragile
But they always get you when you're late
[Chorus]
'Cause you're a broken man
In a broken land
'Cause you're a broken man
In a broken land
[Chorus]
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
[Bridge]
Standing tall, they look so small with the world upon their shoulders
But a broken man on broken land looks far beyond his brothers
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Break for the sun, you're the one, you're the chosen one
Your time is up, your time is due
Cracked like a whip from the hand of a broken man
To find out that he's just like you
[Chorus]
But you've seen it all in your mind, you've seen it all
You've built it up and then made it fall
Because you're killing yourself and you're so fragile
But they cannot crush you if you don't crawl
[Outro]
Now I'm a broken man
In a broken land
Now I'm a broken man
In a broken land
Now I'm a broken man
In a broken land
[Outro]
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
And don't they wish they were blessed like you?
