Crooked Fingers - Broken Man lyrics

rate me

I got a phone call from a friend the other day

Says he got into some trouble says he's got to go away

Says he's been wasting time making up his mind

Says it's so hard to take a stand when you're a broken man

Dig yourself into a deeper hole

Deeper than the the deepest hole you know

You put your money on the line just to blow it every time

You're always dealt a dirty hand when you're a broken man

Wipe the sleep out of your eyes

No trick, half joke, or lie

No truth true and tried

Hours creeping thick and sure

How can you be so pure

So shiny and new

So never lend a broken man a broken hand

Or talk the kind of lip nobody understands

The truth is true and tried but so are all your lies

A lie can be the truth--the truth just in disguise

I got a phone call from a friend the other day

Says he got into some trouble says he's got to go away

He says he needed money but for him I got no money

Cause it's so hard to give a damn when you're a broken man

Wipe the sleep out of your eyes

No trick, half joke, or lie

No truth true and tried

Hours creeping thick and sure

How can you be so pure

So shiny and new<br />
