David Alan K - Broken Children Lyrics




Sitting alone on a cold metal bench
In a metal cage
Even if you knew what day it was
It wouldn't matter
Staring into the black hole where your mother was
Trying to remember your father's face
An unwilling and unnecessary orphan

We keep breaking them for some reason
All we get are broken children

You came with hope
And they tore your heart out
You leave in fear and silence
Surrounded by all that violence
You came to accept the promise of America

We keep breaking them for some reason
All we get are broken children

Well live is better
Than where you've been
If you've got the right color skin
And your papers are in order
When you cross the border
But you came too late
Now they've slammed the gate

We keep breaking them for some reason
All we get are broken children

Still sitting alone on a cold metal bench
In a metal cage
Even if you knew what day it was
It wouldn't matter
Staring into the black hole where your mother was
Trying to remember your father's face
An unwilling and unnecessary orphan

We keep breaking them for some reason
All we get are broken children
