Broken People

Verse 1 You’ve got that look like you’ve been through the gears, Counting the mileage in bruises and tears. I’m a map of wrong turns and a dashboard that’s cracked, Two runaway trains pulling onto the track. Pre-Chorus We aren’t looking for saving, we aren’t looking for pure, We know there’s no magic, we know there’s no cure. Chorus We’re just broken people finding broken people to be broken with, Tearing down the stable lines, living in the myth. Line up your jagged edges right against mine, Two wrongs making something damn near divine. No fixing, no healing, no putting back together— Just bleeding in time, surviving the weather. Verse 2 Let the world keep its perfect, its polished and clean, They don't know the beauty in the static screen. You hold my triggers, I’ll watch your ghosts, It’s the darkest of nights that binds us the most. Pre-Chorus We aren’t looking for saving, we aren’t looking for pure, We know there’s no magic, we know there’s no cure. Chorus We’re just broken people finding broken people to be broken with, Tearing down the stable lines, living in the myth. Line up your jagged edges right against mine, Two wrongs making something damn near divine. No fixing, no healing, no putting back together— Just bleeding in time, surviving the weather. Verse 3 Spilled drinks on the counter, the clock striking three, You’re staring right through all the armor on me. No apologies offered for the mess that we make, Just a quiet acceptance of the pieces we break. Chorus We’re just broken people finding broken people to be broken with, Tearing down the stable lines, living in the myth. Line up your jagged edges right against mine, Two wrongs making something damn near divine. No fixing, no healing, no putting back together— Just bleeding in time, surviving the weather. Outro Yeah, just leave the pieces on the floor... Don't fix a thing. Jagged edges. Your scars, my scars. Mismatched and perfect. Just broken... With you.
