Song Meaning

The lyrics to "Broken" immediately plunge into a world of predetermined struggle, where the speaker feels their "whole world written down like death note." This stark image of fated despair is quickly met with a declaration of resilience: "You know that I arise." It sets up a powerful tension between an inescapable past and a yearning for a new beginning. At the heart of these lyrics lies a profound internal conflict: the speaker's self-awareness of their own deceptions.
