Welcome once again to Music Monday where I offer you all a song that I really like. If anyone wants to join in then please feel free to have a go! 🙂
Today I bring to you all a double dose of classic nu-metal with Broken and The Way I Feel by 12 Stones. Both the songs are from their 2002 self-titled debut album.
12 Stones: Broken.
Alone again again alone
Patiently waiting by the phone
Hoping that you will call me home
The pain inside my love denied
Hopes and dreams swallowed by pride
Everything I need it lies in you‘Cause I’m broken
I know I need you now
‘Cause deep inside I’m broken
You see the way I live
I know I know your heart is broken
When I turn away
I need to be broken
Take the pain awayI question why you chose to die
When you knew your truth I would deny
You look at me
The tears begin to fall
And all in all faith is blind
But I fail time after time
Daily in my sin I take your lifeAll the hate deep inside
Slowly covering my eyes
All these things I hide
Away from you again
All this fear holding me
My heart is cold and I believe
Nothings gonna change
Until I’m whole again
Songwriters: Eric Weaver / Anthony Mccoy / Kevin W Dorr / Patrick Quave

12 Stones: The Way I Feel.
Lately I’ve been wandering
Off the narrow path
You’ve given me so many things that I’ve never had
And all in all I know it’s you that always pulls me through
If you reach deep inside you’ll see my heart is true‘Cause I hate the way I feel tonight
And I know I need you in my life
Yes I hate the way I feel inside
And I promise to make the sacrificeThe world I know is pulling me
More and more each day
I feel like the odd man out as I begin to pray
Spiteful eyes are watching me
With everything I do
In the midst of darkness Lord
My spirit calls for youI feel like this
Songwriters: Eric Weaver / Kevin Dorr / A. Gainer / P. Mccoy / G. Trammell

Awesome!👍 Glad to know that someone else has heard of them! I’m in the UK, I think that Broken was a WWE PPV theme way back in the day which is how I heard them but no-one else ever seems to know who the band is.😂

Lol maybe tell them the lead singer is the back up guy on Evanessance song Being Me to Life!😂😂😂
I haven’t paid to watch a WWE event since my son was about 12! He’s going to be 33 this year!😂😂

Hey! So “if” I was interested in giving Music Monday a go….. what do I need to do? Is there a weekly theme or is it I pluck a random song from my rather eclectic music library? I’m curious….

Just say that it is from my blog and link to my blog, ya know, just what people usually do with memes.👍 Other than that, if you want to be involved, go for it. There’s no theme, nothing like that, just whatever song you want and feel like.
