I Am not Broken
I am not broken
For now I’m just bent
From all the words I’ve spoken
And all the time I’ve spent
I don’t know what to do
I write this in hope my words get through to you
But you hide behind your walls
I don’t run away when your gate falls
I want to get through to you
What have we come to?
Sometimes you don’t notice
How much your words sting me
Here’s the diagnosis
Don’t run away from me, please
Sometimes you don’t realize
How much your words heal me
It leads me to theorize
I think we’re meant to be
I am not broken
For now I’m just bent
From all the words I’ve spoken
And all the time I’ve spent
I don’t know what to do
I write this in hope my words get through to you
But you hide behind your walls
I don’t run away when your gate falls
I want to get through to you
What have we come to?
I think I fractured last night
You left me feeling worried
You said you were my knight
But sometimes the princess takes the lead
I’m trying to forgive you
I will need a little time
Can we begin anew?
The blame is all mine
I am not broken
For now I’m just bent
From all the words I’ve spoken
And all the time I’ve spent
I don’t know what to do
I write this in hope my words get through to you
But you hide behind your walls
I don’t run away when your gate falls
I want to get through to you
What have we come to?
Your apology
Made me feel bittersweet
I love you
And you love me
I don’t want to scare you
But I have a feeling
And I think you feel it too
That we’ll one day be sealed with a kiss and a ring
I imagine our future together
You said you dream of it likewise
You make me feel better
You leave me hypnotized
I am not broken
For now I’m just bent
From all the words I’ve spoken
And all the time I’ve spent
I don’t know what to do
I write this in hope my words get through to you
But you hide behind your walls
I don’t run away when your gate falls
I want to get through to you
What have we come to?
What have we come to?
I am not broken
I’m trying to get through to you
(Get through to you)
