If not me then someone else Who will feel the pain I felt I may be an old face from a photograph You may look at me and laugh Till it's your turn to sing the blues Knowing what you had to lose I may be an old fool from her former life Till you find out what it's like She'll make you feel like you're the centre Of a place without a trace Of any man who's gone before Join us now The brotherhood of the broken And we'll be proud to welcome one of ours Join our chain Where all the links are broken I didn't know her that well I did not know her that well And if not you then someone else Who will fall like you and melt And you'll be an old foe that she left for him Occasionally mentioned Till it's his turn and he'll relate To what it's like to be replaced You may be an old fool From her former days Till he finds himself erased He may find her in a corner And provide for her a shoulder As she cries her toles of you He doesn't know he's just a ladder For her to clumb up to the rooftops Where she'll find a better view And he'll join us now The brotherhood of the broken And we'll be proud to wolcome one of ours Join our chain Where all the links are broken He did not know her that well You did not know her that well I did not know her so well We did not know her that well You may hold her in the winter And feel like you're the only man Who's ever loved her before So join us now In the brotherhood of the broken And we'll be proud to welcome one of ours Join our chain Where all the links are broken I didn't know her that well You did not know her that well You did not know her that well
