Verse 1
Broken hearts from broken love
That was meant to fill the half empty part of the glass
Passing on down main street
Dimmed eyes Jaded smiles
Fading halos hanging over broken winged angels
Passing on down main street
And the loneliness from her broken nest
Fills her heart with a fear that binds her wings
If she closed her eyes she could be the wind
Can you hear her soul crying
Chorus
Hear me help me
Ninalia saidia saidia
Ninalia saidia saidia
Saidia
Verse 2
Broken banks from broken backs
Now broken dreams drowning in the shallow deep of their making
Dragging on down main street
And the preachers wordso often spoken
Drags my shadow longer than the sun drags her rays across the earth
Dragging on down main street
He is frozen in a body that he barely understands
Sinking in a life that he never even planned
Hoping to receive with a closed fisted palm
Can you hear his soul crying
Chorus
Hear me help me
Ni nalia saidia saidia
Ninalia saidia saidia
Saidia
Verse 3
These calloused hands these blistered feet
In this 2X4 I just don’t fit
I’m sweating and chaffing in this cruel heat
I’m lost and found in this broken beat
I’m living to be so in dying to be so out
When will these ends ever meet
I’m huffing and puffing against this wall
I needI need to let go
Chorus
Hear me help me
Ni nalia saidia saidia
Ninalia saidia saidia
Saidia
