Broken Lyrics

If what I say
When I say, when I say, I can't take it
They're gonna take, gonna take,
Gonna take you away from me
If I'll be straight
Don't know, don't know, don't know if I can take it
Just can't let them take you away from me

Cause if they take
If they keep you away from me
You know I won't leave you alone
If you take your love from me
Gonna be, gonna be a broken, broken man

No I won't leave
Won't leave, won't leave, won't leave without you
I've been waiting, waiting, waiting across the street
Where have you been
Have you been, have you been, I know you've been
With someone
Just can't let them take you away from me

Cause if they take
If they keep you away from me
You know I won't leave you alone
If you take your love from me
Gonna be, gonna be a broken, broken man

I say I'm broken
I'm really broken
I say I'm broken
I'm really broken, broken, broken

I say I'm broken
I'm really broken
I say I'm broken
I'm really broken, broken, broken a broken man

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
