Bent Lyrics
[00:21.35] If I fall along the way
[00:25.55] Pick me up and dust me off
[00:30.78] And if I get too tired to make it
[00:35.62] Be my breath so I can walk
[00:39.42] If I need some other love
[00:41.83] Give me more than I can stand
[00:47.98] And when my smile gets old and faded
[00:53.23] Wait around I'll smile again
[00:56.70] Shouldn't be so complicated
[00:59.32] Just hold me and then
[01:01.53] Just hold me again
[01:03.68] Can you help me I'm bent
[01:06.17] I'm so scared that I'll never
[01:09.05] Get put back together
[01:11.49] Keep breaking me in
[01:13.43] And this is how we will end
[01:16.17] With you and me bent
[01:20.34]
[01:23.96] If I couldn't sleep could you sleep
[01:28.95] Could you paint me better off
[01:33.43] Could you sympathize with my needs
[01:38.15] I know you think I need a lot
[01:41.54] I started out clean but I'm jaded
[01:44.20] Just phoning it in
[01:46.46] Just breaking the skin
[01:48.77] Can you help me I'm bent
[01:51.21] I'm so scared that I'll never
[01:54.18] Get put back together
[01:56.55] Keep breaking me in
[01:59.11] And this is how we will end
[02:02.03] With you and me bent
[02:05.63]
[02:18.91] Start bending me
[02:21.98] It's never enough
[02:24.59] I feel all your pieces
[02:28.39] Start bending me
[02:31.19] Keep bending me until I'm completely broken in
[02:39.31]
[02:56.82] Shouldn't be so complicated
[02:59.53] Just touch me and then
[03:02.08] Just touch me again
[03:04.35] Can you help me I'm bent
[03:06.64] I'm so scared that I'll never
[03:09.30] Get put back together
[03:11.79] Keep breaking me in
[03:13.82] And this is how we will end
[03:16.68] With you and me livin' without understandin'
[03:21.85] Can I go there again
[03:24.32] Can you help me I'm bent
[03:26.81] I'm so scared that I'll never
[03:29.42] Get put back together
