America You'Re Broken Part 1
AMERICA YOU'RE BROKEN
I was hurt once
you gave me a hug
And with that touch
Lord it wasn't sensual or sexual
Agape
America you are broken
Like a vase on a table
by an open window
fallen on to the floor
America you're broken
Lord you know we need real love, agape
Like a stroke
a blood vessel ruptured
life's blood flowing every where
civil unrest
school shootings
spousal abuse
children running loose
everyone right the truth
this has been spoken
America you are broken
