No direction, sinking ship
Slipping slowly, lost her grip
Desperate whispers down the hall
Echo softly, freefall
And it’s a lullaby for
The brokenhearted
Go back to where you started
Reread the lines you tried
Dry those tears you cried, and
Just don’t think of him
Come on, sink or swim
Cross out the path you charted
'Cause it’s a lullaby for
The brokenhearted
Rainy Thursday afternoon
Feeling better spoke too soon
Favorite re-run TV show
She scans the credits for
The names she knows
And it’s a lullaby for the brokenhearted
Go back to where you started
Reread the lines you tried
Dry those tears you cried, and
Just don’t think of him
Come on, sink or swim
Cross out the path you charted
'Cause it’s a lullaby for the brokenhearted
Dirty dishes, restless mind
All the memories left behind
Silent breakfast, burns the toast
She swears that she has seen his ghost…
And it’s a lullaby for the brokenhearted
Go back to where you started
Reread the lines you tried
Dry those tears you cried, and
Just don’t think of him
Come on, sink or swim
Cross out the path you charted
'Cause it’s a lullaby for the brokenhearted
