Broken

Lyrics by: Ewan Mainwood & Christopher Smith
Composed by: Ewan Mainwood & Christopher Smith

She told me that it's over
Says we’ve drifted apart
After everything I told her
She drove off in a car
To another place, just not to face it
She left her clothes on the floor and I’m aching
Need to hold it all together, now

Each day
Each week
I’m getting further along
I’m fine at work
But lose it when I get home
And see the photos of us on the walls
That we took, and it hurts

The bed gets colder
Every morning I still want to hold ya
And keep you on my mind
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can’t when I’m still broken

You’re my first thought and my last one too
Cos everything that’s in-between just leads me back to you
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can’t when I’m still broken

She told me that she needs this
says she’s stuck in a rut
It can’t be the only reason
Cos she’s still calling me up
To ask if I can drive her home at night
Her Phone will die
Can’t decide to decline or to brave it
You need to hold it all together, now

Each day
Each week
I’m getting further along
I’m fine at work
But lose it when I get home
And see the photos of us on the walls
That we took, and it hurts

The bed gets colder
Every morning I still want to hold ya
And keep you on my mind
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can’t when I’m still broken

You’re my first thought and my last one too
Cos everything that’s in-between just leads me back to you
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can’t when I’m still broken

Now I'm tearing out my heart, just to give you what you want
And I don’t need this lump in my throat
I wish I could be proud to be happy for you now
But it's way too soon to let you go

The bed gets colder
Every morning I still want to hold ya
And keep you on my mind
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can’t when I’m still broken

You’re my first thought and my last one too
Cos everything that’s in-between just leads me back to you
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can’t when I’m still broken
