Close to the Broken

[Verse]
Shadows linger where hearts break
Tears fall in rivers
Endless ache
The air is heavy
Silence screams
This world feels colder than my dreams
[Prechorus]
But in the fractures
In the cracks
I hear a whisper pulling me back
[Chorus]
Close to the broken
You never leave
In the shattered pieces
You still breathe
Close to the broken
You hold the pain
Like a soft rain
Like a soft rain
[Verse 2]
The night is long
No stars in sight
Every breath a battle
Every step a fight
I cry out loud
But the words don't stay
Still You find me in my disarray
[Prechorus]
In the silence
You remain
A quiet fire in the pouring rain
[Chorus]
Close to the broken
You never leave
In the shattered pieces
You still breathe
Close to the broken
You hold the pain
Like a soft rain
Like a soft rain
