Your Too Broken For Me

She found him like a injured bird,
Shaking hands and slurring words.
Said, “Come on in, I’ll fix your wing,”
“Let’s dry you out, and change some things.”

She cooked him meals and hid his stash,
Flushed his pills, poured out his glass.
Held his hand through sleepless nights,
Dreamed he’d choose the better life.

(Chorus)
You’re too broken for me to mend,
I can’t be your crutch, your only friend.
I tried to heal your shattered wings,
But you chose the needle over everything.
I loved you more than you’ll ever know,
But if you won’t rise, then I must go.
Sometimes the kindest thing you’ll see
Is letting go of what’s too broken for me.


But every time she turned her back,
He’d disappear and score a sack.
Those hollow eyes, that vacant stare,
Told her he loved the high more than her care.

One night he said, “Just let me be,
I don’t want help, don’t rescue me.”
Her tears fell down like pouring rain,
She saw her love couldn’t fix his pain.

She scraped up cash to pay his rent,
Believed the story ‘bout where it went.
But when he stumbled through her door that night,
She smelled the dope and saw she’d fed his high.

So she opened up her trembling hand,
Set that broken bird back on the land.
Whispered, “Fly or fall, it’s up to you,”
Then walked away, with a heart cut in two.

(Bridge)
She said, “I’ll always care about you,
But I can’t sink just to pull you through.
If you won’t fight for your own life,
I’ve got to save my heart tonight.”

(Chorus)
You’re too broken for me to mend,
I can’t be your crutch, your only friend.
I tried to heal your shattered wings,
But you chose the needle over everything.
I loved you more than you’ll ever know,
But if you won’t rise, then I must go.
Sometimes the kindest thing you’ll see
Is letting go of what’s too broken for me.
