I know they’ve hurt you bad
Why hide the scars you have?
Baby let me straighten out your broken bones
All your faults to me make you more beautiful
I can’t help it
I love the broken ones
The ones who
Need the most patching up
The ones who
Never been loved
Never been loved
Never been loved enough
Maybe I see a part of me in them
The missing piece always trying to fit in
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home
No you’re not alone
I love the broken ones
You don’t have to drive
With your headlights off
It’s a pocketknife
Not a gift from God
Don’t you learn of love from the love they kept
I will be your anchor slowly
Step by step
I can’t help it
I love the broken ones
The ones who
Need the most patching up
The ones who
Never been loved
Never been loved
Never been loved enough
Maybe I see a part of me in them
The missing piece always trying to fit in
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home
No you’re not alone
I love the broken ones
Maybe we can rip off the bandage
Maybe you will see it for what it is
Maybe we can burn this building
Holding you in
I can’t help it
I love the broken ones
The ones who
Need the most patching up
The ones who
Never been loved
Never been loved
Never been loved enough
Maybe I see a part of me in them
The missing piece always trying to fit in
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home
No you’re not alone
I love the broken ones
This comment will probably go unnoticed.. I used to listen to this as a young teen, I was bullied and abused, I felt completely alone and I would listen and imagine she was singing to me.. (sad I know, sorry, I was a lonely child) but it made me feel like someone cared, that someone could save me and love me. And now I’m back, listening again.. I’ve recently lost my mother and some nights I just don’t know what to do but listen to this on repeat and cry...
