lyrics

There's a broken book I've been reading
Little broken words for my broken mind
Is a broken line worth repeating?
Brittle broken pages so hard to bind

Carry a flask for the drunker you
Wearing a mask for the younger you

There's a broken book you've been writing
Every verb attached to some limb of mine
There's a broken verse filled with fighting
Little love to surge is so hard to find

Finish the task on the hunt for you
How do I ask for what I want from you?

Where do I start?
I would wait for you
Tenderest heart
I can't change for you

Don't break the spell
Break the book
