Broken Mess-The Classic Crime
CAPO 1
VERSE
He can't slCeep, he can't Dmeat
He keeps thiAmnking about her
CBehind the locked dGoor of her bedFroom
As she knoAmwingly tortures the shCell
That is lGeft of her bridFegroom
VERSE 2
And what did he do to deserve
This whore of a wife who parades
Her disgrace to his face now
When he loved her and gave up his life
In more ways than she knows how
CHORUS
GAnd all I can say is that lCove is a terrible Amart
It's a hook in thDme heart that can drag you on brGoken glass
And as you prCotest the shards in your flAmesh
The hook tears out your cDmhest until you're just a brGoken mess Am
VERSE
Where is God in this rot?
Depraved she commits the most heinous
Of sins and breaks her vows
But he loves her despite all the crimes
She devises in his house
VERSE 2
Where is God? I've been taught
That He's close to the broken
It's true I have spoken with Him some
When I look in my brother's eyes
I can see where his love comes from
CHORUS
And all he can say is that love is a terrible art
It's a hook in the heart that can drag you on broken glass
And as you protest the shards in your flesh
The hook tears out your chest until you're just a broken mess
BRIDGE
FBut he has mercy oGn her lover
And dCoes not bleed him dry
A crDmedit to his selAmf-control if it were Gme
That monster would probably die
CHORUS
Love is a beautiful thing
She can make your heart sing
When you're walking on broken glass
OUTRO
CShe will open your eyes
AmMake your heart feel alive
DmPoint you toward the sunrise
GHelp you leave all this broken mess behind
FLove Gis a beautiful thEming
FWill you leave your bCroken mess behGind?
Oh, lFove Gis a beautiful tEmhing
FWill you leave your brCoken mess beGhind?
Oh, lFove,G oh, lEmove
FWill you leave your brCoken mess beGhind?
Oh, lFove, Goh, lEmove
FWill you leave your brCoken mess behGind?
