Lyrics

Up From the dust we rise*
Slithering these same streets*
To shed this self de-evolution*
I need to break what's broken*

Chorus:
So I'm Breaking Down the Broken*
Shatter the pain we cling to*
Every vibration spoken*
Just brings it all right back to you*


Smearing this dirt on myself*
Footprints all across my face*
Eyes blurred from scraping away the at the truth*
I need to break what's broken*

Chorus:
So I'm Breaking Down the Broken*
Shatter the pain we cling to*
Every vibration spoken*
Just brings it all right back to you*

Bridge Poem by Rashani:

There is a brokenness
out of which comes the unbroken,
a shatteredness
out of which blooms the unshatterable.
There is a sorrow
beyond all grief which leads to joy
and a fragility
out of whose depths emerges strength.

There is a hollow space
too vast for words
through which we pass with each loss,
out of whose darkness
we are sanctioned into being.

There is a cry deeper than all sound
whose serrated edges cut the heart
as we break open to the place inside
which is unbreakable and whole,
while learning to sing.

Chorus:
So I'm Breaking Down the Broken*
Shatter the pain we cling to*
Every vibration spoken*
Just brings it all right back to you*
