And it's broke before you know it,  
Before you knew what it was for  
All you know is you can't fix it  
And you wish you listened more 
To your instincts, to your family  
To the wisdom you'd ignored  
When you finally gonna ask us -- for help?
  
...
But the tears have never dried  
But I'm not coming to you like this  
So batter down and sad 
I will take the road forgotten  
Again
