Lyrics
I know you still love him
And yes, he's my friend
If we had met first
Your heart need not mend
See how he's hurt you
Scars you can't hide
When I first knew it
I asked and you lied
My heart is still aching
Though I can't know your pain
How can you trust him
Ever again?
Can't stand to hear it
When your cries break the air
Can't bear to see you
When I know you're right there
Someday she'll reach out
When she's broken silence
Can you not hear her cries
Above the violence?
In my dreams you touch me
And it pierces my soul
I'd reach out to help you
Though I don't know my role
You still stand beside him
It should end, you know
I'll help break your fall
Please decide to let go
I know you still love him
And yes, he's my friend
If we had met first
Your heart need not mend
See how he's hurt you
Scars you can't hide
I'll help break your fall
But, you'll have to decide
Someday she'll reach out
When she's broken silence
Can you not hear her cries
Above the violence?
Broken Silence
Broken Silence
Broken Silence
