Broken
I've got depression on my mind
Darkness in my soul
The soles of my feet are weary
From climbing out of this hole
My bloody hands hold on
My tired eyes can't see the light
But everything will be alright
As long as I just fight
But who is it I'm fighting?
It's just too dark to see
See-saw battling with insanity in need of rescuing
Indeed please rescue me
I don't know how much I'll take before I break
I find myself putting everything at stake
Plunge a stake right through my heart
To stop me from falling apart
I've searched so long for answers
That alas, nothing seems to matter
So I take matters out of my hands and let go
Crush the mirror and it shatters
I see my reflection in every piece--broken
I fall to my knees hoping
That my eyes finally open
I pick up the glass
Stare into it and see
That the man staring back at me
Is me...
Darkness in my soul
The soles of my feet are weary
From climbing out of this hole
My bloody hands hold on
My tired eyes can't see the light
But everything will be alright
As long as I just fight
But who is it I'm fighting?
It's just too dark to see
See-saw battling with insanity in need of rescuing
Indeed please rescue me
I don't know how much I'll take before I break
I find myself putting everything at stake
Plunge a stake right through my heart
To stop me from falling apart
I've searched so long for answers
That alas, nothing seems to matter
So I take matters out of my hands and let go
Crush the mirror and it shatters
I see my reflection in every piece--broken
I fall to my knees hoping
That my eyes finally open
I pick up the glass
Stare into it and see
That the man staring back at me
Is me...
