Broken Things

[Verse 1]
I've come to you from broken things
I've crawled to you on my hands and knees
Sailed to you across the seven seas
If only to hear you say my name
I have come to you from broken times
I've shown you my face with no disguise
My memories a mirror without eyes
If only to take away your pain
If only to hear you say my name

[Chorus]
Hear the whisper in the rising wind, empty and so cold
Too dark for the birds to fly in and they're lined up on the wall
And as I'm walking by, they scatter and take off
I watch them as they rise into the sun
If only you believed you were the one

[Verse 2]
When the day is new the light is warm
Upon the bed the curtain is drawn and torn
The shadows forming, falling just behind
If only you believed all of my lies
Hanging in my heart just like a flag
When I'm lazy in the wind, the colors sag
As the clouds go rolling off the hill
I can't tell where the rooves begin and end
No more will I know my home again

[Chorus]
Hear the whisper of the rising wind, empty and so cold
Too dark for the birds to fly in, they're lined up on the wall
As I'm walking by they scatter and take off
Watch them as they rise into the sun
If only you believed you were the one
If only you believed you were the one
If only you believed you were the one
