Broken Home

Can't underestimate the pain
The damage that remains
From the vengeance of two hearts
Once so desperately in love
Blessed with children from above
Till the tides of anger tore us apart
Jealously and rage took center stage
Our frightened angels watched from the wings and
Hid their feelings, can these hurts find healing

These precious stones
Children of a broken home
They walk these streets alone
Tossed, untethered, lost together
Can we find peace
Will these wars never cease
Can love find a reason to atone
And mend this broken home

Their innocence had to wait
Took the blame on for our fate
And tucked away their hopes and dreams
They begged and pleaded not to fight
Knew that something wasn't right
Inside our shallow schemes
When will we ever learn
The tide has got to turn
But it doesn't have sweep you away
Seems nothing matters
When a family shatters

These precious stones
Children of a broken home
They walk these streets alone
Tossed, untethered, lost together
Can we find peace
Will these wars never cease
Can love find a reason to atone
And mend this broken home

Don't hide your feelings
Let these hurts find healing

We're all precious stones
Children of a broken home
We're one, flesh and bone
We search for meaning, drifting, dreaming
Can we find peace
Will these wars never cease
Can love find a reason to atone
And bless this broken home

Children of a broken home
Tossed untethered
Lost together
