Broken Like

Broken like the money Broken just like everybody Broken like an emptiness Breaking in our hands Broken like the dawn Broken water, broken newborn daughter Broken like the bender Broken tender, light and slender As the shadow of a night time breaks the sunshine Broken finally, broken fine Broken once and for all every time Broken well and broken kind Like a kindness tries to break a crime Like a freedom is a broken line Broken like a move a body breaks to make a shape of time Broken wholly, broken like the only broken thing And winning in the loss Like home, like a message on an old phone Like a voice, like teeth Like we have to have one each Like the trains Like the way I say your name sometimes Like the earth Broken like the earth Broken like the earth Broken like the earth Broken like the earth Or a name For a first love or a lesson in shame Broken again Broken again Broken in the cold of charity that's broken by a flame Broken like the money Broken just like everybody Asking one another For the way I have all I need For the glory of being I recognize you And I celebrate I am brazen Like a baby Like the stupid sun And I go forward in the courage of mine
