Made to Be Broken

I spilled a drop of blood and drenched my soul

I pulled my skin through the wire

Spat out the broken prose

And when the curtains close

I'll be behind you with a knife at your back

And I'll fight your hate

With what’s in my head

(And what’s inside my heart)

I'll never relate to the things that you've said

Just stopped to fantasize

About the bluest eyes

And a certain smile

That'll rip your soul to peices

Come quick and cauterize

This wide-open wound

Then give me something for the bleeding

And I'll fight this fate

With what’s in my head

(And what’s inside my heart)

I'll never relate to things that you said

I won't shut my eyes ‘til it all just goes away

And I don't know if I can make it through another day

When it started, it was just a little lie

We kept that burning question

Deep, deep down inside

Now we're older and our time is running down

Can we still make it right somehow

The second time around

We don't believe the lies that they've told us

Yeah, the second time around

Returning to the scene of the crime, yeah

Just for one more time around

Skipped over and chastised

'Cause we're never just like you

Misunderstood right from the start

Wore all your cheap abuse like battle scars

Like men from Mars to you

And now you're terrified

When you see what we've become

We don't believe the lies that they've told us

Yeah, the second time around

Returning to the scene of the crime, yeah

Just for one more time around
