Danny

[Verse 1]

Split his ribs open using my bare hands

But I could not repair all of the damage

Built of milk and flesh, so meek and mild

But I know if he'd lived, he'd have grown to be wild

[Chorus]

They broke him and they beat him

And break he did

They took him from me, my baby

And break he did

[Verse 2]

His skin went white as chalk, his limbs turned soft and limp

I cradled him through those moments of weakness

And watched him drift between the worlds of living and dead

Until he sunk down into the pavement

[Chorus]

They broke him and they beat him

And break he did

They took him from me, my baby

And break he did

[Verse 3]

And he laid there for days

In the cold and the wind

But I could not breathe life back in

I tried to fill up his lungs with the air from my own

But he did not wake up again

No, he didn't

[Outro]

Split his ribs open using my bare hands

But I could not repair all of the damage
