Beautifully Broken from Mockingbird Lane by Danni Nicholls

Beautifully Broken
by Danni Nicholls and Rebekah Powell

Our cars crashed in the pouring rain
Going opposite ways on Mockingbird Lane
I was searching for someone to save
You just needed someone to blame

And I wonder to this day
If I should’ve walked away
I should’ve walked away

We were beautifully broken all along
Like the scratched forty-five of sad love song
Like antique pearls come unstrung
You can’t make it right when it’s wrong
We were beautifully broken all along

You came home one cloudy day
With a tiffany lamp that had a crack in the shade
You were looking for something to mend
But I knew it would never light again

And I wonder to this day
If it was always gonna fade
It was always gonna fade…

We were beautifully broken all along

And I wonder to this day
What we tried our best to save
There was nothing left to say

We were beautifully broken all along
