Lyrics
Oh Lord, calling your name Calling your name Calling your name In this misery Oh, the fire's gone cold But I still feel the burn Searching for a spark In the ashes we left Baby, why'd you break me? Break me down Love me shattered Let me shattered on this lonesome ground Gonna rise from the pain Gonna rise from the pain Find my way somehow Weary heart Redemption's calling Fade inside Love will come again I'm breaking free tonight Turning heartbreak to wings Into the light Baby, why'd you break me? Let me shattered But I'm standing Mercy Rising from the pain Stronger than before Whispers turn to roars I'm free at last Love will find me Yeah, I'm free at last At last At last, I'm free at last
Why'd You Break Me
