Knowing I'm Broken

Lie to yourself

Don’t ever look below

Keep yourself in shadows

Never want to know

Lost in the forest

Every branch a piercing knife

Every gentle flower poison

Every breeze to take your life

Falling into pieces

Scattered by the wind

Lost and confused

Cast from your kin

I WANT TO BE CLOSE
I WANT TO BE WHOLE
I WANT TO MOVE ON
BUT I CAN’T PAY THE TOLL

So I’m stuck here in limbo

Alone though you’re so near

I can’t feel you in me

I’m losing you I fear

Nothing is so bad

You are there for me like before

Nothings really changed

Except there is a Door

The door is locked and labeled Love

But its brambles have grabbed me

Torn and fused into my flesh

Escape I can’t even see

So now I am confused

Everything makes me cry

I want to have you like before

But I can’t stand up to try.
