"I'm Broken" is a song by the heavy metal group Pantera from the 1994 album Far Beyond Driven. "I'm Broken" reached #19 on the UK Singles Chart. The song features one of guitarist Dimebag Darrell's most famous riffs.

Here's a comment from Dimebag Darrell about the riff:

"I'm Broken" was a sound check riff – one of them ones where I'd walk in with a hangover from ripping it up night after night with everyone in every town. That's where a lot of the best riffs I ever wrote came from. I just played the first riff I thought of, Vinnie started kickin' in on it, Rex joined in – we didn't write the entire song on the spot, but we kept toying with it and finally worked on it once we got into the studio.^[1]
