Broken Man (Broken Romeo 2013)
It’s another relation stalling
You seem like somebody else.
It feels were growing apart now
You said it yourself..
It's another emotion thawing
So now you're walking away
We've seen this movie before
It's just another day..
Now you want a reaction
I can see the way you look at me
It’s a fading attraction
I can’t be that man you want me to be.
It's another confession calling?
I can barely make out the sound
You said you wanted to look
I hope you like what you found
Now you want a reaction
I can see the way you look at me
It’s a fading attraction
I can’t be that man you want me to be.
I’ve got to learn to live again.
And fix the shell of this broken man.
I need to stand on my feet again
I'll shake the past the best I can..
Fix this broken man..
I don't see a reason now to give you any more..
The feelings have long faded and I bore you..
I don't see a halo above that angel face of yours..
Guess I'll find a new thing to adore..

W.A.U.L.F. (What Are You Looking For?)
You had a hard time even after
You said you found what you're looking for
You can jump
Who are you falling for?
You said we'd be friends ever after
Now you say that you're moving on
In to that place that we used to mourn
But did you ever mourn?
I don't want to sift through the ashes
Just to burn my fingers when I'm done
You can run
But who are you running from.
You Push and you pull
You're sick and you're thin
You die just a little to feel alive again
Don't you know what you're looking for?
What are you looking for my friend?
I know that you're lonely
Life is no ceremony
So run away, get away from your past
I know that you're not right
You're wound up and feeling tongue tied
So run away, get away
It can't last
Don't be a pain in the ass
What are you looking for?

The Astronaut
(Broken Romeo ©2014)
Don't let go
And though I'm facing this alone
Engine's go
G-forces stretch my flesh from bone
And into space
But out of place
My engine's failing
There's no time to waste
Don't let go
I'm trying to hold on
Above
I'm alone
And everyone I know is gone
My fuel is burned
Communication failure in
3, 2, 1
I'm lost in space
No radar trace
Can someone read me?
I'm calling home base
So don't let go
I'm trying to hold on.
Is love the thing that betrays us?
Or Love the thing that can save us?
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go

The Calling
Sometimes I think the World is changing.
Or is the world just changing me?
Maybe I should start re-arranging the way I think things ought to be?
Set me free..
Can you look at yourself?
Can you empathize?
See life through someone else?
It’s your secret…
That you bury deep…
It's like looking after a child that’s gone to sleep.
Then opens his eyes..
Do you run?
Or Face your fear?
And face the laughter you've heard throughout the years?
I know you're scared
You can't sleep.
For dreams of losing the things that you want to keep..
You can take a look at yourself.
You can face this thing alone or ask for help.
You can stoop so low, reaching up so high...
And get buried deep trying to touch the sky.
You’re a long way down that road to come back now..
You've given up too much
Now the structure’s falling
You're feeling out of touch..
Time for you to find another Calling…

Lost and Found
Another Song to sing
Another broken ring
You say we'll work it out
But when the thing's in doubt
How can you make it right
When you refuse to fight
While people's lives get burned
No ashes left to mourn
Down, down, down
Another sad cliché
We both have parts to play
I'll be the better man
Then let you down again
It's not a pretty sight
But you don't have the right
To take me back again
Just to let me walk again
Down, down
And Now I've gone and lost myself again
We almost made it (You found me)
In that place it seems I've always been
scarred and jaded (I'm Drowning)
But when I see you precious face
It takes me to that special place
And I
I'll find my way with you..
You don't owe me anymore
You don't owe me anymore
Sometimes You'll lose yourself to find yourself again...

C.O.T.S. (Children of The Sun)
The moment is so close
Yet we're still so far away
We drown in our sorrows
But from the path we will not stray
Shrouded in darkness
But my friends
Be not afraid
The black sky that's starless
Will soon see light of day
We live for tomorrow
When the past will fade away
We'll replace our sorrow
For the Way
Will be shown to us someday
A storm is approaching
The pain to wash away
For many who've fallen
And few who still remain
We move in the shadows
But my friends
Be not ashamed
The black sky that's starless
Will soon see light of day
We live for tomorrow
When the past will fade away
We'll replace our sorrow
For today
We write our own story
We are a Primal Scream
We are a machine gun
We are a special breed
We are the chosen ones
The children of the Sun

Mutually Sedated
You wake to pounding in your head
And pull yourself out of our bed
You swear tonight you will abstain
But after 6 it starts again
You stole a piece of my heart
And now it's going to your head
And the rest..
who knows?
To play the game you play the part
A lover's web that falls apart
But in this story line who knows..
We'll change the way this ending goes..
You stole a piece of my heart
And now it's going to your head
And the rest..
Is bound to wind up dead.
But your life is what you make it..
And we made it..
Being Mutually Sedated.
Are you wasted?
All those voices in your head
Scream at you when you're in bed
But It's a brand new day
It's just another day
For you to find your way.
It's another Day
But your life is what you make it..
And we made it..
Being Mutually Sedated.
Are you wasted?
Can you taste it?
I'm Calling you out..

Let Me Go
Your eyes filter through the darkness
Solitary's your best friend
Count the days to stave off madness
Now you're waiting for the end.
Now you've memorized the boundaries
Of your prison
Of your cell
A free world outside around you
But inside a living hell
Man
Will you let me go?
I never meant the things that I did Man
Will you let me know?
Can you get me out of this shed Man
You keep all alone
You made this cell my Home
So I beg you Man
Will you let me know?
We're gonna let you go when you're dead..he says
It don't take long for you realize
That you've got to make amends
That the deals you made in your life
Won't here buy you any friends
Now you spend your days in Darkness
Cold hard floor
for your pillow and your bed
the only freedom that you get here
Is the Freedom in your head
Man
Will you let me go?
I never meant the things that I did Man
Will you let me know?
Can you get me out of this shed Man
You keep all alone
and made this cell my Home
So I beg Man
Will you let me know?
We're gonna let you go when you're dead..
And it's hard for you to visualize
A free man's life to live again
But you never dreamed that
This is the end
Hey Man
Will you let me go?
I never meant the things that I did Man
Will you let me know?
Can you get me out of this shed Man
You keep all alone
and made this cell my Home
So I beg you Man
Will you let me know?
We're gonna let you go when you're dead..
Hey Man will you let me go?
We're gonna let you go when you're dead..

"Something Good"
© Broken Romeo 2016
People fighting when there nothing left to win
Ain't that how it's always been?
People judging by the color of the skin
Children raped of their innocence
Give me something else..
Give me something that's good..
like I know you can
Many killed in the name
of a God they don't believe in
The sick can't pay for their medicine
Children starving with good food in your garbage bin
It goes on and on again..
Give me something else..
Give me something that's good..
Like I know you could
I don't want some big headline
I just want some truth
And all the lies that go around
all point back at you
"I'm what's right" and "You're what's wrong"
We heard it all before
And if you waste my precious time
I'll free my mind
and think a little more
Give me something else..
Give me something that's good..
Like you said you would..

What Are You Thinking?

Your precious armies
Your loaded guns
The final game has just begun
You test the waters
You dive in deep
The questions' is all there's left to keep
What are you thinking when they're in your pain
Because we all bleed Red the same?
We're not pawns in your twisted game..
You're Holy Mountain on which you
Slaughter the "Sheep"
Do their ghosts haunt you in your sleep
You wake to screaming
The deed is done
Keep them faithful with the butt of a gun
What are you thinking when they're in your pain
Because we all bleed Red the same?
We're not pawns in your twisted game..
Can you feel the light dimming in their eyes?
Broken seals of wrath
When Sea's turn red
And the bodies are stinking..
What are you thinking?
A March in the desert
With guns to their heads
Another 6 year old shot dead
A Mother's anguish
But Can you hear her cry
She's left to grieve and ask God….
WHY!?
What are you thinking when they're in your pain
Don't you know we all bleed the same?
We're not pawns in your twisted game..
Can you feel the light dimming in their eyes?
Broken seals of wrath
When Sea's turn red
And the bodies are stinking..
What are you thinking?
What are you thinking?
When your armies are shrinking
and the hangman's noose
is tight around your neck
