 Silverstein - When Broken Is Easily Fixed Lyrics

I can resist everything except temptation.
My body breaks, but I am still intact inside.
My human instinct, I can love unconditionally.
Cross my heart and lie to you [my conscience plagues at me, fills me with this despair] Failure within me.

Promise you and let you down [Emotion conquers my soul, robs me of myself] Brings me to my knees.
Follow me, lead you astray [nourish myself with fear, give me the pain to fail] Loathe myself to sleep.
Your words kill me.
You can breathe without oxygen and live without sorrow.

How I envy you, though pity your ghost.
Ignorance is bliss I wish I could never love you.
So ironic that a heart made by man, when broken is easily fixed.
But a human hurt can last a lifetime.

Rust or decay.
The fire or the flame.
You and I will lead the path to change.
Pave the way.
