[Verse 1]

If I could find a way to change today

The way I sing and how I play

I couldn't change a goddamn thing

If I can't change a broken string

Frustration gets the best of me

Vehemence will not let me be

Relaxed and gentle when I'm playing

While the metal is decaying

[Chorus]

I go to so many shows, my ears are always ringin'

And if I go deaf, then I won't have to hear my lousy singin'

And if things are goin' my way, it doesn't mean a thing

'Cause tomorrow, I could have another broken string

[Verse 2]

Well, I don't know how to solve my problem

So many times, I've felt so dumb

It seems though as it's a total flop

When all the action has to stop

And Ean sighs, the punks just stare

Josh runs his fingers through his hair

I get so tense, my hands are shakin'

I can't afford all the strings I'm breakin'

[Chorus]

I go to so many shows, my ears are always ringin'

And if I go deaf, then I won't have to hear my lousy singin'

And if things are goin' my way, it doesn't mean a thing

'Cause tomorrow, I could have another broken string

[Post-Chorus]

Tell me anything

It's just a broken string

[Interlude]

[Verse 1]

If I could find a way to change today

The way I sing and how I play

I couldn't change a goddamn thing

If I can't change a broken string

Frustration gets the best of me

And vehemence will not let me be

Relaxed and gentle when I'm playing

While the metal is decaying

[Chorus]

I go to so many shows, my ears are always ringin'

And if I go deaf, then I won't have to hear my lousy singin'

And if things are goin' my way, it doesn't mean a thing

'Cause tomorrow, I could have another broken string

[Post-Chorus]

Can tell me anything

It's just a broken string

Another broken string

Can tell me anything
