Broken Road

(album: Fate Loves The Fearless - 2021)

You don't know enough to tell me
It was easy what I been through
You don't stand a chance to ever understand
But say you do even if you can't

I beg you please just don't tell me I'm alone
Cause I've been trying to find my way on a broken road
How can you not see the glass I been stepping on?
I feel like I'm trapped in a marathon
But I'm gonna make it out, even if it breaks me down

I'm lost, don't know what's coming next
My mind don't feel like it's progressed
The words I think don't hit the same
Don't know why, but I feel regret
Maybe it's 'cause all my life
I've done my best to feel things less
My heart don't take things lightly
Everything weighs heavy on my chest
I stress a lot, simple things
Like what to say and how to dress
How is what I'm doing now
Gon' help me with what's coming? Yes
I feel the breath expand my lungs
Alive is what I am but yet
I can't help feeling dead inside
I swear I try, I barely rest
I need something
Make me believe in something
Therapy ain't work
'Cause I could feel how they was reading on me
Tell me you feel me
I won't believe it but really
This moment may be what I'm needing
Never thought I'd be feeling this lonely, fuck...

I beg you please just don't tell me I'm alone
Cause I've been trying to find my way on a broken road
How can you not see the glass I been stepping on?
I feel like I'm trapped in a marathon
But I'm gonna make it out, even if it breaks me down

Losing control, never thought it'd be like this
Go through shit on my own, cause I fear that I might be
A burden to every soul that I cross when I like being
Someone everyone knows as the one who be light bringing
Now the rain don't last but the sun don't shine forever
And all the lows make the highs feel that much better
When I'm alone I deep dive, down to the center
Of my core, what's the point? Who am I? Am I stepping
Foot in a good direction? Beautiful lessons, wish it was better
People said they'd hold me down but I guess it was only temporary
Till the real life shit hit and it gets scary
But for the moment I just wanna feel like people hear me
Swear the road is lonely but I know the people with me caring
It's so fucking hard to really feel that when your vision weary
Every decision got you tripping, don't really get it
I just wish that was seeing clearly
How am I gonna to grow, if I don't even know me?
Asking the holy ghost, where am I supposed to go? I need
Something else for feeling, lately I'm so numb no reason
This the hardest time I've ever faced, but...

I beg you please just don't tell me I'm alone
Cause I've been trying to find my way on a broken road
How can you not see the glass I been stepping on?
I feel like I'm trapped in a marathon
But I'm gonna make it out, even if it breaks me down
