Angels falling from the sky
Imagine that imagine that
Nobody getting out of here alive
No turning back no turning back
Who’s going to bail out all our shattered dreams
And scrape some truth off of these city streets
No time for praying get up off your knees
There’s hope I know
Out on that lonely road
‘Cause home is where you are and where I am
Breathe in breathe out
There’s only now
And all I got I’m holding in my hands
We’re breaking out of broken promise land
Let’s close our eyes and just disappear
Slip through the cracks no looking back
We’ll get a million miles away from here
And let the past just fade to black
So what you learn to live with your regrets
No need to fear what hasn’t happened yet
Life will get you but you can’t forget
There’s hope I know
Out on that lonely road
‘Cause home is where you are and where I am
Breathe in breathe out
There’s only now
And all I got I’m holding in my hands
We’re breaking out of broken promise land
So rise my fallen angel
Come on now come on now
Shine, don’t let them break you
Come on now, come on now
Come on now, come on now
Come on now, come on now
Come on now, come on now
There’s hope I know
Out on that lonely road
‘Cause home is where you are and where I am
Breathe in breathe out
There’s only now
And all I got I’m holding in my hands
We’re breaking out of broken promise land
Breaking out of broken promise land
Breaking out of broken promise land
Escaping the Shadows of Broken Promises
“Brokenpromiseland” by Bon Jovi is a powerful anthem about resilience in the face of shattered dreams and failed expectations. The lyrics paint a picture of hardship, where angels fall from the sky and city streets hold the remnants of lost hope. Yet, within this landscape of disappointment, the song carries an unwavering message of hope. The refrain urges listeners to break free from the cycle of regret and fear, emphasizing that the present moment is all that truly matters. Home, as described in the song, is not a place but the presence of a loved one, and this emotional anchor becomes the driving force to rise above adversity.
