Broken Keys
[Verse 1: Ed Harcourt]
Broken Keys
They don't mean much to me
If you're not around
To put them back together
Ah, Broken keys
Maybe I'll just let them be
Perhaps they make a better sound
When they're all stuck together
[Pre-Chorus: Ed Harcourt]
I said "Please, please baby
Soothe these callous fingers
My soul has not surrendered
Since you burned my heart to cinders"
Let the band play on in sheer cacophony
[Chorus: Ed Harcourt & Greg Dulli]
So won't you fix mе up
I'm a little bit stuck
I think we sufferеd enough
From all these maddening times
So won't you fix me up
I'm a little bit stuck
Thank God you've got enough love
To stop us losing our minds
[Verse 2: Greg Dulli]
Broken keys
They dissonate so perfectly
I'll wash these bloody hands
That have been hammering forever
[Pre-Chorus: Greg Dulli]
I said "Please please baby
Pull out all the splinters
I'm a-lyin' in the winter
Since you've burned my heart to cinders"
And the band play on in sheer cacophony
[Chorus: Ed Harcourt & Greg Dulli]
So won't you fix me up
I'm a little bit stuck
I think we suffered enough
From all these maddening times
So won't you fix me up
I'm a little bit stuck
Thank God you've got enough love
To stop us losing our minds
[Bridge: Ed Harcourt, Greg Dulli]
Losing our minds
Losing our minds
Losing our minds
Losing our minds
Losing our minds
Losing our minds
[Chorus: Ed Harcourt & Greg Dulli]
So won't you fix me up
I'm a little bit stuck
I think we suffered enough
From all these maddening times
So won't you fix me up
I'm a little bit stuck
Thank God you've got enough love
To stop us losing our minds
