"Broken"
An Original Song By:
Everest
Lyrics:
Intro:
Writing this song,
With the hands you once held,
Makes me afraid
To think in my own head
The hands you held through everything,
The hands you held
When you said
I was your king
The hands you held
When you lied to me
Not a secomd goes by,
When you're not on my mind.
It makes me regret being alive,
It makes me feel broken
Verse 1:
If I was anybody else
Anywhere else
In the world right now
I would love you the way you deserve to
I feel sorry
I know you feel betrayed
I'm not sure I could protect you
From the bite of the snake
Chorus:
If I could turn back time
Maybe it wouldn't have been a lie
Maybe we wouldn't be broken
On two sides of a crime,
We're waiting for best
Don't want anyone else
But you.
Verse 2:
I know your heart aches,
Don't worry, mine does too.
It just feels so far,
When I reach out for you.
On two different sides of the gun
When we pulled the trigger,
We forgot to run away.
I'm sorry that I can't stay.
Bridge:
Grand illusion
Grand trick
False trip
Fear took ahold
When I got told
Never to return again.
Repeat Chorus
Verse 3:
It left me feeling broken
Inside the stranger I'd become
I was afraid
How troublesome things could be
I was afraid
That this was me
It can't be true,
I can't fall into love with you.
Repeat Chorus
Verse 4:
Your promises
Were left unkept
My heart was Broken,
And countless nights I wept
My persona was swept
Of all of it's sin
If I saw you again,
I would take it all back in.
Outro:
As I lay here dead,
It's your face that won't leave my head
It will haunt hell's dreams,
And bust my heart's seams,
But please,
Don't leave.
