As the darkness falls he hears the voices call,
asking forever the same questions,

as every night before he is chilled to the core,

The only way through the dark is truth,
but they are forever telling lies,

He's had enough of these hand cuffs,

He's a broken man but he's breaking through,
He's breaking free,
He's a broken man so he can break through,
and he's broken through to me,

he's telling tall tales of unwalked trails,
he speaks in a voice that he knows,

but now he's realised that he too is telling lies,

he wonders how he found this voice he uses now,
it's too close to that of those,

searching his moods for words that speak truth,

He's a broken man but he's breaking through,
He's breaking free,
He's a broken man so he can break through,
but his lies wont get him what he needs,

Harmonies and songs sung with coiled tongues,
they sing along with all that he says,

he's the leader of the pack with the broken back,

There's no truth in his lines he's lost his spine,
He used to stand strong and alone,

Now he's missing his bones he's just another clone,

He's a broken man who thought he broke through,
He thought he was breaking free,
He's a broken man and he tried to break through,
but he lacked the spine to succeed.
