Broken Lyrics

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel...

    Erm....this song was out practically centuries before Amy and Shaun even THOUGHT about dating. lol Nah, I tink (yes tink) this song is about how...someone has lost something. Maybe their way, their life, their love and now they feel broken and torn because it's gone and they don't know how to get it back. They where so used to feeling 'good' with it around...they don't know how to cope now. It's a beautiful song really.

    Yeah I'm sure Seether wrote this song long before Amy Lee and Shaun were going out. I think it has something to do with an ex long before her.

    I love this song ! I talked to Shaun backstage of a concert once and Shaun said he wrote this about his emotions towards his ex-girlfriend. It was a way of telling her he wanted her back: "Cause I am broken when I am lonesome and I don't feel right when you're gone away"... but they never got back together

    Personally, I don't believe this is a breakup song as much as it is a I'll-miss-you-when-you're-gone kinda song. It could be either. But I think its a song about missing people you love. Family, friends, and your signifigant other could be included in this song. It has a very broad, and very deep meaning.

    An amazing song!

    This song was out way before Shaun and Amy were even together and I think it has to do with Shaun talking to his daughter. He says he isn't strong enough, maybe he's refering to having to leave her while he goes on the road or it could have something to do with his ex- wife if it seems more like a break-up song. I would say that it had more to do with one or the other. Judging by the way he sings the song in concert, I would say it was more likely written about the daughter though because he always seems to sing it from his heart.

    Um, well they kinda sang it together and I kno I wouldnt do that if id just broken up w/ the person. I think it's about a very flawer relationship, but they make each other happy. Even though war is everywhere they can look into eachothers eyes and smile genuinly.

    It's about Shaun and Amy's breakup...probably one of their first times breakin up. He feels she don't love him anymore, and he loves her still alot, then she comes in and says she still loves him. Without each other they're not complete, that's what they're implying.
