This song – ‘Broken Inside’ by Broken Iris – showed up on my Spotify ‘Discover Weekly’ playlist this week and the moment I heard it I knew it had to be the #MusicMonday. Not just because I’ve had a hellacious two weeks, and have been beyond exhausted, but because from the lyrics, to the sound of this man’s voice, to the rhythm/beat I fucking love it. I love this song so hard and I really hope you take a minute to read the lyrics and listen to this because it is SO GOOD.

Lyrics

Until the end of me,
you’ll be the death of me.
I dare you to cross the line again,
cause deep down inside
there’s something that waits to be…

Broken inside,
feeling alive,
forced to defy
who casts me aside.
I’m waiting to be…
broken inside,
losing my mind,
I’m gasping for life,
crashing through tides,
that drive me to find
the darkness behind.
We’ll never run dry
but all still stand.

Until the end of me, (I swear)
you’ll be the death of me. (I dare)
I dare you to cross the line again,
cause deep down inside
there’s something that waits to be…
Cross the line again,
because deep down inside,
there’s something that waits to be broken.

The thinning line between
you and my sanity,
is quickly fading.
Takes just a breeze to cause a storm.
The thinning line between
you and my sanity,
is quickly fading.
Takes just a breeze to cause a storm.
Takes just a breath to cause a scream.
It takes me to cause a tragedy.

Until the end of me, (I swear)
you’ll be the death of me. (I dare)
I dare you to cross the line again,
cause deep down inside
there’s something that waits to be…
Cross the line again,
because deep down inside,
there’s something that begs to be broken inside.
