Face Down (US): "Broken Song" Lyrics

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
