The Broken Ones Part 3


Would this world care without me?

When you won't even let me be free!

I was tested, I was tried,

But I still want to die.

 

You and me, Are we still broken?

Through the silence my breaths are choking,

Can you save me?

Can I be free?

 

When will this pain ever fade?

In the end, will I be okay?

I can't put myself back together,

Can you help me feel better?

 

You and me, Are we still broken?

The end seems so foreboding,

Can you use your love

To help me rise above?

 

None of this seems fair,

And I'm so scared,

Can you help me through,

I still believe in you!

 

You and me, We're still broken!

We couldn't rise above them!

You can't save me now!

The clock is counting down!
