Made To Be Broken

This is a song I wrote based on a testimony (the story of how he became a Christian) from a guy whose name I can't remember but whose testimony has stuck with me:


Its cold outside,
Your window,
I look in,
Fairy lights gleaming,
Off pine trees.

I envy all I see,
Inside,
At least you've got,
Someone to fight with.

But I was made to be broken,
I was make to be left outside.

Its cold in here,
The hospital once again,
Too many cold nights,
And I need something. (more)

'Cause I was made to be broken,
I was made to be left outside.

I live on your streets,
You pass me by,
And stare at me,
While I scream,
For your spare change.

Cause I am made to be broken,
I was made to be shoved outside.

And I've got my tattoos,
Of memories and cults,
Imprinted on my wrist,
Are the scars of rejection.

Coz I am made to be broken,
I am made to be left outside,
I am left with this unread bible,
In my hands.

All  I need is some explanation,
And you provide,
Unseen hands pull me towards,
The altar,
Explanation fills my heart.

But I am made to mended,
I am made to be pulled inside,
I am holding my precious bible,
In my hands.
