Beaten Broken Heart

I told everybody-about my friend.. and a somewhere girl
that done him in. I saw everybody-laughing when.. the
pictures on the wall came crashing in. They're about to
tear him limb from limb. They ain't 'bout nothing'. Real
good friends. They're about to take apart his beaten
broken heart.. and I hear them.
I fought everybody. Fought em' hard. Caught a glimpse of
how the world ain't one. Now I have nobody-but that's
all right. I Can't believe I'm grown.. till I'm alone. I
can't imagine anything. Could stand against this
freezing. They're about to take apart his beaten broken
heart.. and I hear them.
