Broken Hearted Rogues

Broken hearts 
Mean broken ears
 As we sing out
 Our broken tears
Broken hearts
Mean broken fears
As we all shout
Our broken tears

Shout to me
Scream with me
Run away and hide with me
I need you now
To stay with me
Break tradition
Don't leave me

We can live
In our own heads
Forget real life
Dance like the dead
Our own thoughts
And our own dreams
Don't have to die tonight

Shout at me
Scream at me
I'm not the girl you thought I was
I can't look back
I can't move on
I'll just watch
You walk away

Broken hearts
Mean broken ears
Listen to my
Broken Tears
Broken hearts
You saw my tears
Take away
My broken fears

I'm gonna scream out
I'm gonna run away
I'm gonna be myself
Today
It's gonna break me
You're gonna hate me
But I need this
More than you know
