I've loved this video--"Broken," by Gorillaz--since the first time I saw it. It just says so much, to me, for me, about me. It's sad, isn't it, when 73 years of a life can be summed up in a cartoon, lol. There are others of theirs that I like as well, but I always come back to this one...






BROKEN


Distant stars come in black or red
I've seen their worlds inside my head
They connect with the fall of man
They breathe you in and dive as deep as they can

There's nothing you can do for them
They are the force between
When the sunlight is arising

There's nothing you can say to him
He is without a heart
And the space has been broken

It's broken
Our love is broken
It's broken
Our love is broken

Is it far away in the glitter freeze
Or in our eyes every time they meet?
It's by the light of the plasma screens
We keep switched on all through the night while we sleep

There's nothing you can do for them
They are the force between
When the sunlight is arising

There's nothing you can say to her
I am without a heart
And the space has been broken

It's broken
Our love is broken
It's broken
Our love is broken
It's broken
Our love is broken
It's broken
Our love is broken
