Matthew West - Broken Girl Lyrics

Artist: Matthew West

Album: Story Of Your Life

Genre: Christian

Look what he's done to you, it isn't fair
Your light was bright and new but he didn't care
He took the heart of a little girl
And made it grow up too fast

Now words like innocence don't mean a thing
You hear the music play but you can't sing
Those pictures in your mind
Keep you locked up inside your past

This is a song for the broken girl
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world
You are, hear me when I say

You're not the worthless they made you feel
There is a love they can never steal away
And you don't have to stay the broken girl

Those damaged goods you see in your reflection
Love sees them differently, love sees perfection
A beautiful display of healing
On the way tonight, tonight

This is a song for the broken girl
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world
You are, hear me when I say

You're not the worthless they made you feel
There is a love they can never steal away
You don't have to stay the broken girl, girl
You don't have to stay the broken girl, girl

Let your tears touch the ground
Lay all your shattered pieces down
And be amazed by how grace can take a broken girl
And put her back together again

This is a song for the broken girl
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world
You are, hear me when I say

You're not the worthless they made you feel
There is a love they can never steal away
You don't have to stay the broken girl, girl
You don't have to stay the broken girl, girl

No, you don't have to stay the broken girl
