Sung by Marcia Ramirez


BROKEN CRAYONS, her favorite blue,
A tragedy from a child's point of view.
Kiss her tears and say one more time,
BROKEN CRAYONS will color just fine.

Broken hearted, broken down,
Broke and lonely for a love unfound.
Dreams may shatter and lives fall apart,
But broken people still have love in their hearts.

Chorus:
We're all just BROKEN CRAYONS,
A little damaged but the colors are true.
We're all just BROKEN CRAYONS,
Whole enough to let our light shine through.
Bruised and battered, as time goes on.
Each life's a color and precious as pearls.
We're all just BROKEN CRAYONS,
And BROKEN CRAYONS can color this world.

Life may break us, toss us aside,
Hurt our hearts with the feelings we hide.
But from those pieces hope holds true,
BROKEN CRAYONS are beautiful too.

Repeat Chorus

Sometimes you've got to break to be whole.
Sometimes you've got to bare your soul.
Ripped and torn but even then,
BROKEN CRAYONS can still color again.

Repeat Chorus

BROKEN CRAYONS can color this world.
We're all just BROKEN CRAYONS,
We're all just BROKEN CRAYONS,
We're all just BROKEN CRAYONS,
And BROKEN CRAYONS can color this world,
BROKEN CRAYONS can color this world.
