Broken

From the album: Unraveled Veils

Intro - instrumental

Verse 1
One wrong step,
A hard smack on the ground,
I hear a cracking sound,
I feel a hellish pain.

Smashed by a sledgehammer,
I am broken,
I am broken.

Verse 2
Wrapped in a veil of pain,
Helpless I lay on the ground,
I cry out for your help.

I am broken,
I am broken.

Verse 3
Feeling so small,
A little bird that hit a window,
Feeling so small.

I am broken,
Please help me,
Please help me,
I am broken.

Verse 4
Unable to fly away,
You take me under your wings.

The world around me disappears,
Your face I see very clearly,
My pole star on a black sky,
My guiding light.

Verse 5
Feeling so small,
A little bird that hit a window.

I am broken,
I am broken.

Verse 6
I put all my trust in you,
My knight,
Your shining armor
Reflects my facial expressions
Of excruciating pain.

I am broken,
I am broken.

Virtuoso solo - instrumental

Verse 7
Carried on your shoulders,
I let my broken wing rest,
I feel safe,
I let my guard down.

Outro

I am broken,
I let you take care of me,
I let my guard down,
I trust you.

I let you be
Our strong shoulders
That carry my pain,
That support my broken wing.

You carry my pain with me,
Bitter and sweet at the same time,
Bitter and sweet,
You are so sweet.

Outro - instrumental

Musical style concepts

An emotional trip hop track. Low-pitched female voice. The music must show the vulnerability, a cry for help. Lots of variation and building up. The sound of broken glass in the background.
