Broken Angel Songtext
von X&Hell

I couldn′t understand your pain, I was dealing with mine then

If I could really rewind then I wouldn't get time to shine light
On what is dark in memory no matter how harsh the penalty
No matter our hearts are centrepiece
So even if your thoughts betray you
And they lead you down a awkward trail
I′ma be there for you as you were there for me

But seems life's too short to repay you
It's true we had it hard and I ain′t
Look back through rose coloured shades
You dropped me off teacher looking at my mother′s shades


An overcast autumn haze
I'm sitting down in class thinking what
Could turn my mother′s face another shade
If I'd have been my brother′s age
I'd have put that wool shear cutting
Blade right up in his fucking brain
It might have been a bad move
But I′d gladly go to jail hurting anyone who tried attack you
I would cry them tattoos to protect you ma
And words can't tell you how much I respect you ma

I'd rather hurt myself than hurt you
For the times I caused you pain sorry for what it′s worth too

I know I can never repay you
But I′ll do whatever I can to show you I'm grateful
You went without just to serve me a plateful
And I took it all for granted, was stubborn and hateful
We all fall and make our own mistakes too
We make do, if we′re lucky we get a take two
Whatever happens please don't let them change you
I love you as you are, you′re my broken angel

You probably saved four lives when you finally called it a day
Dad hit the bricks, we moved on forging away


Mourning the ways that were before you were changed
From all the torture you were sick, distorted your brain
You dealt with it, God only knows how
Your other son wasn't around but he knows now
Your mother was our rock, she′s watching us so proud
But it's you that gave me all that I need to be grown now
And yep, I'm grown now
Got a little buzz, I′m known now
Got a little fuzz, I′m home now

Took a wrong turn, thought the world was flat
When that passed I was mad, thought the world was wack
But you were patient with my moods and depression I worked through

That shit's real, that′s a lesson I learnt too
We used to fight so I left
Cause I figured that if I wasn't in
Sight then the less I would hurt you
I calmed down, got my shit together
And though I got a way to go yet, I′m on track ma
And though you ain't gonna live forever
We got a lot of days to go yet so don′t slack ma
You need something I don't care if I'm busy anywhere
Any city I′ll be there at the speed of light

Cause anyone that doesn′t understand I would dump a plan for you
That's someone I don′t need in my life

I know I can never repay you
But I'll do whatever I can to show you I′m grateful
You went without just to serve me a plateful
And I took it all for granted, was stubborn and hateful
We all fall and make our own mistakes too
We make do, if we're lucky we get a take two
Whatever happens please don′t let them change you
I love you as you are, you're my broken angel
