According to the My Heart Is Broken Songfacts, the song was inspired by Amy's involvement with an organization in New York that rescues victims of sex trafficking.

[Intro] I will wander 'til the end of time, torn away from you [Verse 1] I pulled away to face the pain I close my eyes and drift away Over the fear that I will never find a way to heal my soul And I will wander 'til the end of time Torn away from you [Chorus] My heart is broken Sweet sleep, my dark angel Deliver us from sorrow's hold [Hook] Over my heart [Verse 2] I can't go on living this way But I can't go back the way I came Chained to this fear that I will never find a way to heal my soul And I will wander 'til the end of time Half alive without you [Chorus] My heart is broken Sweet sleep, my dark angel Deliver us [Bridge] Change, open your eyes to the light I denied it all so long, oh so long Say goodbye, goodbye [Chorus/Outro] My heart is broken Release me, I can't hold on Deliver us My heart is broken Sweet sleep, my dark angel Deliver us My heart is broken Sweet sleep, my dark angel Deliver us from sorrow's hold
