Armed With A Broken Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(1)
Take this as a warning
To stay away from me
Because the man that you used to know
Is not the man that you're going to see
Someday we may laugh at this
Someday we may be friends
But for now you can keep your distance
Stay away till the pieces mend
(2)
This sudden lonliness has made me dangerous
Please don't watch me while I fall apart
'Cause I'm sad and I'm angry
And armed with a broken heart
(3)
And what will get me through the night
Is what I'll use with all my might
And to some peace I have a right
But I pay so dearly
And at my age I should be wise
Now I'm untying all those ties
The evidence is in the eyes
That should see so clearly
I once saw so clearly
(4)
You know I will say anything
If it will keep you away
But I don't know what I would do
If you said you were gonna stay
Don't do me any favors
Don't try to ease the pain
Won't you please let me hate you now
So I won't fall for you again
(Repeat 3, then 2)
