Broken Pieces
I can't think of anything happy
Always felt alone
Even when loved by a few
I was always trapped in stone
Hated myself and my demons
Tore myself completely apart
Couldn't ever be reached
Lost my soul, can't mend my heart
My father was never there
And when he was, he scared us all
If I'm a demon, he was the devil
I always seemed to fall
We all have our pain
But some don't allow it to break the sky
I was angry and felt betrayed
I was hurt but couldn't cry
The mountains on my back
And the sun is on my chest
The ground beneath my feet
I fall to the darkest depths
I'm depressed and I'm afraid
To be alright and feel okay
I can't remember my own name
As the nightmares seem to stay
My own mother she does love me
But I probably hurt her the most
I tried to protect her
But the ship it broke the coast
I'm sorry for what I've done
For making you think I forgot
What we both went through
How much it really cost
We both lost our mind
And lost our hope within
Broken deep inside
It's hard to even begin
As for my sister, I'm a failure
I've been the worst influence
I've tried to be an anchor
But the water lost its buoyance
So this is all I've got to say
That I'm no hero but a coward
I've tried to save the ones I loved
But I've never felt empowered
Always felt alone
Even when loved by a few
I was always trapped in stone
Hated myself and my demons
Tore myself completely apart
Couldn't ever be reached
Lost my soul, can't mend my heart
My father was never there
And when he was, he scared us all
If I'm a demon, he was the devil
I always seemed to fall
We all have our pain
But some don't allow it to break the sky
I was angry and felt betrayed
I was hurt but couldn't cry
The mountains on my back
And the sun is on my chest
The ground beneath my feet
I fall to the darkest depths
I'm depressed and I'm afraid
To be alright and feel okay
I can't remember my own name
As the nightmares seem to stay
My own mother she does love me
But I probably hurt her the most
I tried to protect her
But the ship it broke the coast
I'm sorry for what I've done
For making you think I forgot
What we both went through
How much it really cost
We both lost our mind
And lost our hope within
Broken deep inside
It's hard to even begin
As for my sister, I'm a failure
I've been the worst influence
I've tried to be an anchor
But the water lost its buoyance
So this is all I've got to say
That I'm no hero but a coward
I've tried to save the ones I loved
But I've never felt empowered
