The Justin Wilson Project - The Broken Man (Cajun Viking Records)

A moody prog-metal ballad, this was the only song The Justin Wilson Project released. The band was from Louisiana, but everyone accused them of being from Mississippi. It ended up being too much for the band to take, and they split up.

Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
He opens weary eyes
Let's the sunlight in
Takes a breath and then
His day begins
The same old story
Will nothing ever change?
Is this all there is?
He must rearrange

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
He walks through life without crying
Keeps it all inside, even though his heart is dying
He always smiles to hide his pain
Can he ever bring himself to love again?

[Guitar Solo 2]

[Bridge]
He can't fix his shattered heart
Can't piece together all the parts
He can't go back to the start
Of the pain he felt that day

[Verse 2]
He closes weary eyes
Let's the night air in
Takes a breath and then
His day comes to an end

[Vocal]
Oooooh, oh, oh, ooohhhh
Oooooh, oh, oh, aaahhhh
Oooooh, oh, oh, ooohhhh
Oooooh, oh, oh, aaahhhh
x2

[Finale]
