Broken

(Tony Kakko)



I was raised from a broken seed,

I grew up to be an unwanted weed

Ever faster the time exceeds me,

Little harder again to remember…you.



Held a torch for you, when lightning stroke me,

Once again, hope I died for the last time

Only one I have a thing greater than you,

Little light on the sky every night



Morning dew on the field, where I met you

I was frozen a year, couldn´t get through

Got a sign, not a scar, on my shoulder,

I am not quite the man you take me for…



Fell in love with the weekness within me

Force me the Ring and own me

Guess you found what you´d think would oblige me,

Little version of me to consume you…



I´d give my everything to you,

follow you thru the garden of oblivion

If only I could tell you everything,

the little things you´ll never

dare to ask me…



Do you really know me?…I might be a God

Show me that you care and have a cry

How do you see me?…as the one?

Can you see my blood when I´m bleeding

How can you love this exile,

and how could I desire you

When my pain is my pain and yours is too…



On this deadwinter´s night

Darkness becomes this child

Bless this night with a tear

For I have none I fear…



Seven lifes of a man, passed before me

Seven graves, one for every Love I´ve had

Only once I have broken my so called heart

Only one made me see why they cry



Will I learn how to be one of you someday?

Will I still feel the eyes that behold me

Will I hear what you think, when you see me?

Will it tear me apart if you feel for me…



I´d give my everything to you,

follow you thru the garden of oblivion

If only I could tell you everything,

the little things you´ll never

dare to ask me…



Do you really know me?…I might be a God

Show me that you care and have a cry

How do you see me?…as the one?

Can you see my blood when I´m bleeding

How can you love this exile,

and how could I desire you

When my pain is my pain and yours is too…



On this deadwinter´s night

Darkness becomes this child

Bless this night with a tear

For I have none I fear…



Little broken, always been,

a part of you belongs to me

You were never mine to love,

but this all has made it easy for me…



Burning feathers, not an Angel,

Heaven´s closed, Hell´s soldout

So I walk on the Earth,

behind the curtains,

hidden from everyone,

Until I find a new life to ruin again…



On this deadwinter´s night

Darkness becomes this child

Bless this night with a tear

For I have none I fear…
