Broke But Not Broken
(I'm broke but I'm not broken)
Like the mirror I stare into
Distorting my own view of how I see myself
So untraceable to everybody else
Shattered pieces fell as I tell myself
That everything is alright
As I stand here left with nothing
I'm broke but I'm not broken
.
Like the mirror, that's my rear view
Distorting my own views of how I see myself
It's not erasable, I'm miserable as hell
As the pages turn, I begin to learn
That I have every reason to resent myself
I'm broke but I'm not broken
Don't take this away, 'cause I need it
And I can't let go of this feeling
And these walls, they fall
And my time is slipping further, I can't fight it
.
I stand outside of my front porch
And look at photographs of when things seemed simpler
But I pushed away, so this is where I am
At a different place where I lost track
And everything's not alright
So I'll stand here left with nothing
I'm broke but I'm not broken
Don't take this away, 'cause I need it
And I can't let go of this feeling
And these walls, they fall
And my time is slipping further, I can't fight it
I'm holding on to what I know, don't wanna change
I may be wrong but after every word that's spoken
I'm broke but I'm not broken
Like the mirror I stare into
Distorting my own view of how I see myself
So untraceable to everybody else
Shattered pieces fell as I tell myself
That everything is alright
As I stand here left with nothing
I'm broke but I'm not broken
Don't take this away, 'cause I need it
And I can't let go of this feeling
And these walls, they fall
And my time is slipping further, I can't fight it
Don't take this away, 'cause I need it
And I can't let go of this feeling
And these walls, they fall
And my time is slipping further, I can't fight it
I'm holding on to what I know, don't wanna change
I may be wrong but after every word that's spoken
I'm not broken
I'm not broken
I'm not broken
But after every word that's spoken
I'm broke but I'm not broken
