Tuesday's Broken

Yesterday hell rain down Another kid, another school, in another town Think about how to tell my son Think about how that one got a gun There are mysteries down where the blood meets the bone The loneliness there, wouldn't leave him alone But what if we try to reach him with words What if we looked in his eyes and asked "where does it hurt?" Would he find all he was worth? Monday was hoping But Tuesday's broken On the bed, feet up on the wall Her eyes are red, and wet, and she wants to end it all Easy to be mean on the screen, cowards call you names She reads the lies and multiplies the hurt and shame Man, it's a numbers game But there are mysteries down where the blood meets the bone The loneliness there, it won't leave her alone But what if we try to reach her with words What if we looked in her eyes and asked "where does it hurt?" Would she find all she was worth? Monday was hoping But Tuesday's broken Like voices, won't make a sound We keep missing chances to turn it around If somebody's hurting right now Open your mouth What if we try to reach them with words What if we looked in their eyes and asked "where does it hurt?" Would they find all they were worth? Monday was hoping Don't leave it unspoken But Tuesday's broken
