  • 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 center
    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 for her 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 flame
    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 tales of you
    He doesn't know he's just a ladder
    For her to climb 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 welcome one of ours
    Join our chain
    Where all the links are broken
    He didn't 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
    You didn't know her that well
    We did not know her that well
    We did not know her that well Writer/s: GUY CHAMBERS, MARLON ROUDETTE
