Face Down(us)
Broken Song
Desires to live in the past
To start all over again
When nobody knows and nobody cares
And no one is to blame
A short distance from Heaven
Even though I know it's not the same
I think I must be crazy now
Cause I have yet to go insane
Can I ever let myself smile again
Or will I only wind up feeling pain
The ticking of the clock on the wall
The only sound that remains
It sounds like it's a time bomb
Set to go off in my brain
I got a broken mind, here's my broken song
Why can't I make this damn thing work right
How come I feel like nothing's ever right
Why am I the one who's always wrong
Do you really want to win this fight
Or do you want to just beat me down
Why do I in the morning even bother
To open my eyes
I guess my will is instinct strong
Why do I lose everything I want
When just to get it I had to wait so long
I'm all screwed up inside
It's getting hard to make things clear
I don't know what the hell is wrong with me
I got a broken mind, here's my broken song
Why can't I make this damn thing work right
Don't waste my time, leave me alone
Used loneliness to write this song
Broken mind, broken song
Now I am broken
I've tried everything, just to change the pain
Fractured dream, and I'm not the same
I've lost ability to escape in sleep
Hold on a little longer
And there's nothing left of me
And you said you love me, and you said you needed me
But it's not me
Was never on the inside, too long to be alone
Was never like them, no identity of my own
I can be anything except myself, chameleon
And you said you know me, and you said you'd care for me
But it's not me
Traumatized by the voices inside
Sold myself on a dream that lied
Do things that my friends don't recognize
And know I despise what I've come to feel
Fear constricts and I don't feel real
Parts of you begin to steal
I survive by adaptability
Why can't she see further inside of me
Pull me out and set me free
All I want is for you to let me be
Now I'm back and forth again
Pull me closer, push me away - chameleon
Why did it have to be you who did this to me?
