My Heart Is Broken Lyrics
[Intro]
I will wander 'til the end of time
Torn away from you
[Verse 1]
I pulled away
To face the pain
I close my eyes
And drift away
Over the fear
[Pre-Chorus]
That I will never find a way
To heal my soul
And I will wander 'til the end of time
Torn away from you
[Chorus]
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
From sorrow's hold
[Post-Chorus]
Over my heart
[Verse 2]
I can't go on
Living this way
But I can't go back
The way I came
Chained to this fear
[Pre-Chorus]
That I will never find a way
To heal my soul
And I will wander 'til the end of time
Half alive without you
[Chorus]
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
[Bridge]
Change
Open your eyes to the light
I denied it all so long
Oh, so long
Say goodbye
Goodbye
[Post-Bridge]
My heart is broken
Release me, I can't hold on
Deliver us
[Chorus]
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
From sorrow's hold
