We're All a Little Broken | original song
Hey everyone! Happy Independence Day. Here is my newest original song, "We're All a Little Broken." I wrote it about the current state of the world. I thought we all needed a little message of hope.

Lyrics:
Verse 1:
My mama sat by the window and cried
With my daddy on the phone and my brother inside.
The buildings fell and people died.
It was a living hell all televised.
When I was a child I was so pure and blind.
I never really saw who was black, who was white.
Oh, 'cause labels only divide.
I saw the change;
We live in lies.
Chorus:
But/and I know that with a little faith,
Yeah, we could all use some Saving Grace,
'Cause we could be all right if we just try.
'Cause I know that we've got good inside,
Gotta push away the shadows where the light still hides.
I guess what I'm trying to say:
No matter which side you stand on,
We're all a little broken.
Verse 2:
I lie in bed awake at night,
Tapping out my thoughts wondering why we fight.
Oh, is it still all right if our children die.
Stop trusting those who can copy, cut and paste,
Change, rewind, overlay and erase.
'Cause this world's a lot better than what they make.
chorus
Bridge:
My mama sat by the window and cried.
When I was a child I was so pure and blind.
I saw the change
We live in lies.
Final chorus:
Look to your left and look to your right.
Put your hand upon your heart before you sleep at night.
'Cause I'm telling you: we all beat the same.
And I know that we've got good inside,
Gotta push away the shadows where the light still hides.
I guess what I'm trying to say:
No matter which side you stand on,
No matter which side you stand on,
We're all a little broken.
