Broken Grown Songtext
von Mumford & Sons

Well, touch my mouth and hold my tongue
I′ll never be your chosen one
I'll be home, safe and tucked away
Well you can′t tempt me if I don't see the day

The pull on my flesh was just too strong
Stifled the choice and the air in my lungs
Better not to breathe than to breathe a lie
'Cause when I open my body I breathe in a lie

And I will not speak of your sins
There was a way out for him
The mirror shows not
Your values are all shot


But oh, my heart was flawed
I knew my weakness
So hold my hand
Consign me not to darkness

So crawl on my belly ′til the sun goes down
I′ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away
Now in this twilight, how dare you speak of grace?

So crawl on my belly 'til the sun goes down
I′ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away
Now in this twilight, how dare you speak of grace?

So crawl on my belly 'til the sun goes down
I′ll never wear your broken crown
I can take the road and I can fuck it all away
But in this twilight, our choices seal our fate
