Cracked

I went after you
Time killing Bait
I had full control
Until you said my name

Felt different enough
To catch me off guard
But familiar enough
To make me wanna new start

I still keep running score
Prized Body and Laughter
Ask for nothing more
Maybe Love will come after

I'll feed you the shell
Even let you taste the meat
Shield you from the Hell
That usually comes with Me

Take me as I am Wild
Not what you expect
Love is a sheltered child
Living inside my chest

Fell to too many pieces
Sign of the times
Cracked and full of creases
But you can keep what you find

Clearing space in the Ruins
To build you a Path
I'll keep myself Lucid
Instead of drugged with the Past

I'll let you walk circles
To admire the adversity 
Barren hope becomes Fertile
While dying heartache curses me.

Old vision brand new
Start over where I fell
Lend a piece of me to you
If you can be happy with just the shell
