Broken

Tonight was the last time I'll feel your wrath
For your ill rampage was above compare
    I lie here bleeding amongst shards of glass
    This time I'm broken beyond all repair
With a drunken drawl, you spewed out harsh words
Accusing me of blame, you said I'm crass
    This time I'm broken beyond all repair
    I lie here bleeding  amongst shards of glass
Your boot unto my breast, a surly hit
Silently, I send up a pleading prayer
    I lie here bleeding amongst shards of glass
    This time I'm broken beyond all repair
You pulled me back up with violent rage
I've seen a side of you that no one has
    This time I'm broken beyond all repair
    I lie here bleeding amongst shards of glass
A forceful shove sent me through the window
I whispered to God to end the nightmare
    I lie here bleeding amongst shards of glass
    This time I'm broken beyond all repair
Through rugged breaths, I heard your truck fire up
Sweet tears of irony, freedom alas!
    This time we're broken beyond all repair
    I lie here smiling amongst shards of glass
