Iphone 5 stuck on reboot screen?

I have an iphone 5 that i restored while it was connected to itunes, now the phone is stuck on the rebooting screen and it is frozen on that screen. I can't restart the phone by using the method of holding the lock button down and the volume button because the lock button is broken.
i can't use the assistive touch because the phone is frozen on the reboot screen. It does not even connect to itunes on this screen since it isn't really on… What can i do? I took the sim out, yet it did nothing. I don't have a screwdriver small enough to get the screws out for the battery so i'm sort of lost now.
it is stuck on the reboot screen ( a black screen with the little circle moving around and around )… Any suggestions?
