AFI - Let It Be Broke Lyrics






I live in truth, complacently.
Where's the threat you see in me?
Am I the cause of your self consciousness?
You scream at me
'cause I can't ignore the destructiveness that you support,
'cause my life's contrary to yours.
No soft words from my mouth.
A glazed look in your eyes.
I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies.
I will release myself, I will detach myself from you.
I will detach myself from your kind.
I've seen your life but I can't see how it is
that you can be so content in your own ignorance.
Its been so dark for so long now a new light has come along,
illuminating all, so shut your eyes.
I won't tell you what you want to hear,
I will show you what's real. i will, will defy.

  1. y.... ....

    Songs so catchy I never picked up on the straight edge at all. lol.

  2. T.... P....

    Love this song

  3. L.... K....

    I bruised a rib in a mosh pit to this song in like 1999. Ironically I'm now also dealing with a bruised sternum from a softball collision at 1st base.

  4. T.... ....

    I live in truth, complacently. 
    Where's the threat you see in me? 
    Am I the cause of your self consciousness? 
    You scream at me
    'cause I can't ignore the destructiveness that you support, 
    'cause my life's contrary to yours. 
    No soft words from my mouth.
    A glazed look in your eyes. 
    I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies. 
    I will release myself, I will detach myself from you. 
    I will detach myself from your kind. 
    I've seen your life but I can't see how it is
    that you can be so content in your own ignorance.
    Its been so dark for so long now a new light has come along, 
    illuminating all, so shut your eyes.
    No soft words from my mouth.
    A glazed look in your eyes. 
    I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies. 
    I will release myself, I will detach myself from you. 
    I will detach myself from your kind. 
    I will release myself, I will detach myself from you. 
    I will detach myself from your kind. 
    I won't tell you what you want to hear, 
    I will show you what's real. i will, will defy.

  5. L.... S....

    Davey Havok THE SCREAMER.

  6. c.... ....

    This IS AFI's best song. PERIOD!

    c.... ....

    From their best era, I ignore everything after this album, first 3 LP's and EP's before that were golden hardcore punk ASKING FOR IT.

    c.... ....

    severed111 Black Sails and Art Of Drowning are great albums as well. R.I.P. The real AFI: 1991-2000

    c.... ....

    capnmoench The best song off this record for sure!

  7. m.... k....

    love this album, SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND OPEN YOU EYES
    back when AFI was kicking ass

  8. b.... g....

    Forgot this band used to be fucking awesome .. what happened? .. seems like he slowly turned into a woman .. Now he sits down when he pees

  9. L.... ....

    1:43 = best part

  10. w.... ....

    @AFIfreak4life1 my thoughts exactly

  11. G.... S....

    it was a joke man, i love afi... but just not THAT much.

  12. M.... B....

    @yourmothersdouchebag
    AFI aint that good, in YOUR opinion....
    i would have to agree with F1TY in MY opinion

  13. a.... ....

    @tubetash It's more than okay with me ;)
    <33333

  14. a.... ....

    I've seen your life but I can't see how it is that you can be so content in your own ignorance.. I will detach myself

  15. a.... ....

    Best fucking song on the album. I LIVE IN THE WORLD OF REALITY, YOU COMFORT YOURSELF WITH LIESSSSSSSS

  16. T.... ....

    @punxsnskins They never sold out and became emo -_- I love all of their albums (favorites being STS and TAOD) so I guess I just have to sit in my own little corner listening to music =\

  17. S.... D....

    @HoosierMF I believe you mean tool. And just because you like a band, and go like AFI for life, doesn't mean you're one. You support a band. Well last time I checked.

  18. S.... D....

    @F1TY
    I see SOMEONE got the Straight edge...

  19. T.... I....

    @punxsnskins Well yeah if you expect the new stuff to be the same as old you'd be dissapointed. However their new stuff isnt bad. A matter of taste i guess

  20. s.... s....

    @LongviewGD182 well i understand where your coming from but im into punk so i dont rlly like the new stuff for the reason they sold out and became part of the whole emo thing

  21. T.... I....

    @punxsnskins Subgenres subgenres........

    Dude really, things change sometimes for the better, but mostly for the worse. Their new albums are good (altough they got nothin on this).

    If you cant adapt to change than its a miracle youre still alive :D

  22. Z.... V....

    @tubetash actually its nice to have someone just say they like the song instead of slamming afi's new stuff or fighting with each other i get kinda tired of it

  23. s.... s....

    y did they have to stop being crust punk they were good like this

  24. M.... ....

    @HoosierMF Though I hate their new albums I have to disagree with you. Music isn't simply put "Good or Bad". Art including music is subjective and and can't simply be narrowed down into 2 categories based on ones opinion.

  25. Z.... V....

    @Butler149 as in the people on here probably

  26. Z.... V....

    @tubetash
    'if thats okay with you people'
    O.o huh?

  27. D.... ....

    STS was good... it was rock, not punk, but they still passed as AFI. Now when DU came out and now Crash Love, I'm not sure if they are AFI anymore...

    anyways... they are still my fav band, I got like 10 of their shirts and still wear every single one of them (EXCEPT the one with the bunnies lol)

  28. M.... B....

    I will release myself, I will detach myself (FROM YOU) I will detach myself from your kind
