You say that you're slipping away As you turn from the hand that could save you You fell like a drunk down a well Like a dog into Hell you were sinking And you took it all in as a joke As if you didn't know you were broken Hiding out in the rain you stood soaking Breathing in the glass to your last lung All blackened and cracking and blue Creeping through the slums of your old world Where nothing about you is new They laughed and as they turned their backs You slid into a crack no one saw And stayed there for a very long time Dying of nothing at all Though you went to the doctor to cope And he sold you the new antidote And he told you that you had been broken They say you gave yourself away for a moment But no one would take you You said, I'm alive, but you're dead Cause nothing about you is new Even though you had been diagnosed And were given the new antidote And were numb to the rain and the soaking You have been and always will be broken
