"Broken Is The Man" lyrics

"Broken Is The Man"

I've woken up to my thoughts coming 'round
Man, I've given in to this game that ain't real
I've figured out, where do you go if you can't play games?
Play me, play God
The love was overrated
You know what you were doing and you know what you were saying
Why'd you point the blame when it's you, you should be blaming
I wish you found the man that you thought I'd want to be with
I wish you found the man that you thought I should have been with

I met a man
Who told me that he'd hold me when he can
Told me I'm broken
But I'll take you
And I was in the wrong
I met a man
Did everything he could to put me down
Just to build me right back
I was never broken
'Cause broken is the man

Can you believe I put myself through that all?
Just to realise you mean nothing to me
I let you in
I let you play around with my flaws
My mind, my traits in every conversation
I'm such an open book, I have no filter
I just say shit
Next time that little voice in my head begins to question
Listen to it 'cause you're never ever gonna save them
And now you know that it wasn't love

I met a man
Who told me that he'd hold me when he can
Told me I'm broken
But I'll take you
And I was in the wrong
I met a man
Did everything he could to put me down
Just to build me right back
I was never broken
'Cause broken is the man
