Broken Man

Song Length 5:27 Genre Rock - Alternative

Lyrics

I used to be somebody else ? a different man with a different life.
No control or memory of things I?d done or things I?d seen, I spent my time in black holes sweeping all the shit I could under the rug, forget me, forget you, a violent man in a guilt stained suit, I had no hopes, I smashed my dreams, black or white no in between, thunder and lightening very very frightening, a broken man it seemed.

And then you fell into my life quite literally - tripped upon my foot I took one look and drunkenly asked you back to my flat, (hey hey hey hey hey hey!), I heard you say, to my surprise and your dismay ?ok I?m game, but lets away now before I change my mind, you seem like an alright guy.?

We walked home the long way round by accident, the constant smile upon my face strained and made it ache, it was nearly too much to take, we talked and laughed and it felt so good and right and like the precise exact thing that I needed in my life and I forgot my doom and gloom and soon the key was in my hand and turning in my door I turned and saw what I thought would be so great but love, love, love, was my biggest mistake.

We went into my room, put some music on, it was Moscow Discow by Telex.

Oh LORD! Syncopated synths blew my mind.
And YOU! Your heart racing as fast as mine.
I NEED sanctuary!

Consciousness is fading fast I?m losing everything I ever owned.

Don?t leave, baby, leave me here for dead on the floor,
Don?t leave, baby, don?t you go walkin out that door,
I?m feelin so woozy, I?m not feeling so great, why does my drink taste like Sleeping pills? And why do I feel so goddam sick?
I thought I?d found somebody, I thought that I?d found love,
But now I?m watching you walkin out that door, goin out with all of my stuff.

I came round at 6am no clothes on me at all, and you not there, and sticky hair reveals on touch a bloodstained patch where my head had hit my coat rack.
And once again the feeling grows of murder kill and violent rage,
And I?m alone again you see and I think of you and I go insane,
And I see my money has all gone and what was left to eat and it all makes perfect sense to me you see the circle is complete.

A broken man it seems.
