Born of a Broken Man lyrics

My fears hunt me down

Capturing my memories

The frontier of loss

They try to escape across the street where

Jesus stripped bare

And raped the spirit He was supposed to nurture

In the name of my

In the name of my

Born of a broken man, but not a broken man!

Born of a broken man, never a broken man!

Born of a broken man, but not a broken man!

Born of a broken man, never a broken man!

Like autumn leaves his sense fell from him

An empty glass of himself shattered somewhere within

His thoughts like a hundred moths

Trapped in a lampshade

Somewhere within

Their wings banging and burning

On through endless night

Forever awake he lies shaking and starving

Praying for someone to turn off the light

Born of a broken man, never a broken man!

Born of a broken man, but not a broken man!

Born of a broken man, never a broken man!

Born of a broken man, but not a broken man!

My fear is hunting me down

Capturing my memories

The frontier of loss

They try to escape across the street where

Jesus stripped bare

And raped the spirit He was supposed to nurture

In the name of my

In the name of my

Born of a broken man, but not a broken man!

Born of a broken man, never a broken man!

Born of a broken man, but not a broken man!

Born of a broken man, never a broken man!
