Broken Wheel
Eddie Bush


I’m like a broken wheel

Off a random car
Just rolling along
I never get very far

Others pass me by

Don’t pay me any mind
I keep moving ahead
Til I run out of time

I’m like a lonely bird

That still likes to sing
Sits high in a tree
It spreads its wings

No other voices join

The solo melody
It’s the sound of a soul
That’s truly free

I let the rat race pass me by

No point in putting up a fight
I won’t let worries steal my laughter
I gotta keep this dream alive
Climb as far as I can climb
I won’t live my days any faster
Cause in the end it doesn’t matter
We all fall off the ladder

I’m like a memory

Your mind can barely see
A small reminder of
How things used to be

But the future demands

That you give all you can
And heart strings tie themselves
To ghosts that we leave

I let the rat race pass me by

No point in putting up a fight
I won’t let worries steal my laughter
I gotta keep this dream alive
Climb as far as I can climb
I won’t live my days any faster
Cause in the end it doesn’t matter
We all fall off the ladder

I let the rat race pass me by

No point in putting up a fight
I won’t let worries steal my laughter
Gotta keep this dream alive
Climb as far as I can climb
Won’t live my days any faster
Cause in the end it doesn’t matter
We all fall off the ladder

We’re all broken wheels

Off of random cars
Just rolling along
We rarely get very far
