Broken Past Lyrics

Broken Past

Stayin' up all night with endless thoughts of shame

Is far too overrated, you are not to blame

It's already forgotten by everyone else

The only adversary that is left is yourself

We've all botched up everything, made a fool look like a king

If it never came to blows then you're too tame to know…

It's alright if you said the wrong thing

Alright if you tossed your wedding ring

Alright if you've ever finished last

All lives come with a broken past

What you can do now to quickly soothe your soul

Is forget about the demons that you can't control

Don't worry about all your old embarrassments

You better laugh 'em off 'cause they will happen again

We've all botched up everything, made a fool look like a king

If it never came to blows then you're too tame to know…

It's alright if you said the wrong thing

Alright if you tossed your wedding ring

Alright if you've ever finished last

All lives come with a broken past

OK if you didn't pass a test

OK if you failed to impress

OK if folks made you an outcast

Know they too have a broken past

We've all got a broken… we've all got a broken past

I don't know a CEO who I'd call sane

Your favorite grade school teacher is just as cray

The cop who pulled you over really wanted a bribe

The highest-rated shrinks all love to self-prescribe

It's alright if you said the wrong thing

Alright if you tossed your wedding ring

Alright if you've ever finished last

All lives come with a broken past

OK if you didn't pass a test

OK if you failed to impress

OK if folks made you an outcast

Know they too have a broken past

We've all got a broken… we've all got a broken past
