Lyrics

Broken Wing

The cotton swaying in the breeze
From the heatwave no relief
There’s something missing
There’s something broken
All the while deep down you freeze

Your daddy gave you everything
Perhaps it was not what you need
Your beautiful mama
Always distant
Up and down exposed to extremes

Something inside of you is broken
Something inside is left unspoken
You try to fly but it seems pointless
Something isn’t as it should be
Broken wing

You can’t put your finger on it
Picture perfect as a dream
Whispers of ungrateful child
But things are not as they seem

The sun and wind they will find you
One day you’ll have your own sweet Spring
As you thaw your trust in life
And all the joy it brings
You will soar up very high
No more broken wing
No more broken wing
