The Chris Carlino Story: Week Five

we are we are broken people (we are some broken people)

just trying to make it on our own (yet we try to make it)

we are we are broken people (we are some broken people)

and yet we are not alone (only cause of you we’re not alone)

now this aint how it’s supposed to be

cause mom and dad really wasn’t supposed to leave

but now divorce what they chose to seek

and now they see the kids every other week

and this aint how it supposed to end

cause when they started out they was best friends

but how it begins aint how it ends

sometimes that’s how the story spins

what do you do now what do you say

when people drift apart and they walk away

starting over make us all afraid

dealing w/ remorse plus a ton of shame

but there’s a cure for ya ton of pain

there’s hope and healing now in his grace

and there’s a place where you see his face

where he makes beauty out our mistakes

this aint the way the way she went and planned it

but little by little she they took it all for granted

just another story on our little planet

a little compromise break a few commandments

so the baby’s coming she starts to panic

contemplates all her choices and then examines

all the voices trying to tell her just to take advantage

of the fact she could abort it like it never mattered

but she struggles just to understand it

feeling lost confused and a little damaged

she knew his life was the thing that matters

so he grows kind of like a seed that’s planted

it was hard but she always managed

even when the problems never seem to vanish

she looks at his fingers and the little hand prints

she might be broken but shes gonna manage

we are broken cause we are sinful

we are a messed up type of people

just living in a world that’s quite deceitful

but there’s a way out if you let Him lead you

you see he promises to never leave you

everything you’re facing he would be through

its blatant that we really need you

even in our storms we can see you
