[Intro: Richard Rogers]
Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse 1: Wade Walters]
I never knew my father was so broken inside our home
Until the day I found my mother crying on the floor alone
She said, "How could he do this to me?
How could he do this to us?
I thought we made a promise
But instead he broke my trust"

[Pre-Chorus: Richard Rogers]
Now I'm left with these questions

[Chorus: Richard Rogers; both]
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents' sake?
When we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Oh-oh-oh
Why are we innocent raised within conflict?

[Post-Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

[Verse 2: Richard Rogers & Wade Walters]
I never knew that hearts could shatter just like broken glass
'Til you proved to me that love is fragile and cracked yours in half
I just hope there's hope for me to stay home
So go ahead and call it off, go ahead and call it off
It's not just the fact that you're splitting up
It's that you're teaching me about giving up

[Chorus: Richard Rogers; both]
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents' sake?
When we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Oh-oh-oh
Why are we innocent raised within conflict?
[Bridge: Richard Rogers; both]
So I'm moving along now and
I'll carry on, trying the best that I can
Because of my father's sin
You blame your actions on him
Fighting a war within
I'm so afraid of what's to come and all I haven't learned
I'm on the other side, I'm finally free with no concern
You always sheltered me from being me and now I see
All my potential you hid from me at age fourteen

[Chorus: Richard Rogers; both]
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents' sake?
When we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Oh-oh-oh (Now I'm left with these questions)
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Whoa-oh-oh
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents' sake?
When we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Oh-oh-oh
Why are the innocent raised within conflict?
