She--- she hears the whispering of angels
Her own piece of paradise
And she--- she wants the same kind of fame that you want
Is there a compromise
‘Cause you--- you’re both almost perfect
And you--- you’re almost but you’re not there yet

She--- she wants her own crystalline palace
Along the lines of fairytales
But you--- you only want all the attention
You missed your ships and they’re setting sail
And you--- you’re both so close to perfect
You--- you’re halfway there

And everything’s broken in this place
Everything’s broken
The whole world is broken
Everything’s broken in this world
Everything’s broken
Your life is broken

And no--- I’m not the one to decide this
You got to make it on your own
I’m--- only here if you need a hiding place
A place that you can call your own
And you--- you know it’s impossible
But you--- you’re going for the platinum

And everything’s broken in this place
Everything’s broken
The whole world is broken
Everything’s broken in this world
Everything’s broken
But we are not broken

‘Cause now, as the rules start to fall
If you can be sure of anything
Anything
We’ll stand tall
And now, as we dry our eyes
The world is our oyster

{instrumental}

Everything’s broken in this place
But you are not broken
And I am not broken
Everything’s broken in this world
But people aren’t broken
We are not broken
