The emotional rollercoaster that is Damaged, written by Jimmy Broccoli, whips you around on unstable rails, transporting you to a poetic wonderland that challenges the traditional while embracing the unexplored.

Damaged is exposed and vulnerable verse that whispers in bold type.

Everything happens for a reason. Right? Everything makes you stronger. Right? Wrong. I was weak. I was down. I was broken. I was lost. I made the choice to be stronger and rebuild again. I guess it is what it is. Right?
