When I was born I lost
When I was freed I fought
Now that I'm loved I'm caught
Between the rest
and this tragic mess
An invited guest
Torn broken and frayed
Oh don't we face
War sunshine and grace
Oh won't you stay
For a while
We can fail in style
I can hold your smile
For a while
What was once new now gone
What was once
praised now wrong
As they go we can say we know
But what do we know
But war sunshine and grace
Oh don't we take
What's bitter to taste
Torn broken and frayed
Don't we face
War sunshine and grace
Won't you stay
'Cause I won't tell
I won't tell a soul
That I'm mad as hell
Torn broken and frayed
I'm torn broken
and frayed no
I'm cold worn out
and shamed
