Broken

Elvis Costello

If im frightened then I can hide it

If I'm crying, I'll call it laughter

If I am haunted, I'll call it my imaginary friend

If I am bleeding I'll call it wine



But if you leave me then I am broken

And If i'm broken then only death remains



If I am drifting, then I can fight it

If I am sinking, no-one will know it

If I am blinded I'll have my voices to guide me

If they yet fled away I'd bless the silence



But if you leave me then I'm broken

And If I'm broken then only death remains
