Like a Mirror Fallen on the Dusty Road

A song of brokenness, but with hope found in God at the end

Just like a mirror fallen on the dusty road
Tread upon, unnoticed, in a thousand jagged pieces
Just like an ancient, fragile masterpiece of clay
Tumbled off the table, a cloud of dust, in a wave of fragments
Broken pieces

Just like a piece of chalk and too much pressure
Two halves, both much too small
Like a figurine of shining glass on display
Knocked down by a careless and clumsy child
Am I that child?
I don’t know… but one thing I know is that

I’m broken in pieces
I’m hurting inside
I feel like an echo
I just want to hide
Can anyone see me?
Am I all alone?
I’m running, I’m screaming
I want to come home
Cuz I’m broken…

Just like an orphan with no family
Like a stranger with no friend
My heart is hurting, bleeding, churning
And I don’t believe my pain will ever end
No, I don’t believe my brokenness can mend cuz…

Chorus (x2)

But there’s hope, this I realize
As I look up to the endless skies
Father, you see my wounded soul
You see my broken heart
I need your grace and healing touch
I know you love me, but I wanna know how much

Chorus (Instrumental)
