Broken Saint

Down on bended knee Carved in agony This is all of me Behind the lies Behind the disguise [bass enters, slow heartbeat] I tried to make the light I tried to make it right I had to use my might To finish the fight I'm just a broken saint You see the chipping paint My halo's running faint I tried to go above I tried to make the love But I'm just a broken saint I held the sacred flame Spoke the holy name I took away the blame Now my crown is bent All my grace is spent I tried to chase the dawn Now that is gone I'm nothing but a pawn Trying to be reborn I'm just a broken saint You see the chipping paint My halo's running faint I tried to go above I tried to make the love But I'm just a broken saint [strings enter, tension lifting] My robes are stained in sin I couldn't hold it in Lost before I begin Mercy walked away I couldn't make her stay [full band swell, choir rises] Maybe broken saints Are the only kind Maybe holy hands Were never blind Those who wear the scars Are the only ones who see That a broken saint Is all I'll ever be [key change, maximum intensity, choir full] I'm just a broken saint See my chipping paint My halo's running faint I tried to rise above I tried to find the love But I'm just a broken saint I'm just a broken saint Just a broken saint Just a broken saint With chipping paint Just a broken saint.....
