[Intro: Tim Lambesis, Tim Lambesis & Chris Clancy]
I sing for the broken ’cause I’m a broken man
I sing for the fallen because I am
I know what it is like to be abandoned
By those you thought were friends but never cared

[Refrain: Tim Lambesis]
I sing for the broken ’cause I’m a broken man
Broken

[Verse 1: Tim Lambesis]
The world’s version of honor
Is a man who won’t allow his friend to speak
Not a moment to consider
How someone might react to suffering
(So convinced that judgment’s a superior view)
Before allowing for compassion to lead us through
This era where we turn our backs on those who ask for help
Claiming moral ground with one foot in hell

[Refrain: Tim Lambesis]
I sing for the broken ’cause I’m a broken man

[Chorus 1: Chris Clancy & Tim Lambesis]
If I fall (If I fall), would you catch me or just leave me?
Or am I (Or am I) only there to serve you?
If we fall (If we fall), through it all (Through it all)
Now I have found the strength to face
The storm

[Post-Chorus: Tim Lambesis]
I sing for the fallen, oh
Fallen

[Verse 2: Tim Lambesis]
‘Cause only those who’ve fallen
Have seen who truly cares

Only those who have struggled
Have learned who hurts or helps (Hurts or helps)
I am no stranger to pain
No stranger to having to start again
I thought there’d only be one rebirth
But it took more to find a life of worth

[Refrain: Tim Lambesis]
I sing for the broken ’cause I’m a broken man

[Chorus 2: Chris Clancy & Tim Lambesis, both]
If I fall (If I fall), would you catch me or just leave me?
Or am I (Or am I) only there to serve you?
If we fall (If we fall),through it all (Through it all)
Now I have found the strength to face
The storm

[Bridge: Tim Lambesis]
I don’t want a place in society
If I have to call these cowards family

[Refrain: Tim Lambesis, Tim Lambesis & Chris Clancy]
I sing for the broken ’cause I’m a broken man
I sing for the fallen because I am
I sing for the broken ’cause I’m a broken man
I sing for the fallen because I am

[Outro: Tim Lambesis]
I know what it is like to be abandoned
By those you thought were friends but never cared
