Ms. Humpty Dumpty

(album: The De2our - 2020)

She wakes up broken
Going through her day
Trying to put herself together
Just to wake up broken again
And so she hates going to sleep
Those eyes don't ever close
And when they do it's cuz she prays for help
Nobody knows
She tries to put herself together with superglue
Those tears break it apart again
They always do
She doesn't know how to be loved, nah
Too young to have a child
Too old to try to be one
And when that vision blurred she hangs on to every word
And arm of every person acting like they cared
It never occurred
That this life can be a trap that we all fall into
But everything that happened ain't your fault
Quit acting like you knew

She had a smile with cracked teeth
Eyes like shame
And a voice like a muffled scream
So keep stepping
One shadow to the next
She lays with the enemy, everytime she gets in bed

Ms. Humpty Dumpty, I think we might be onto something
Break It all apart
And put it together
Just to make nothing
Where'd your king go?
Cuz every single person that tries just dies in the cycle
Let it go
Because we all know
You're broken inside more than the outside will ever show
And all the kings horses
And all the kings men
They weren't good enough to ever put her together again

Take the shame
Feelings that come in waves
Needs someone to stay
But she's pushing them all away
And all the pills don't help to stop the visions
The memories she lives with:
The smell of him
The touch on her skin
Still so vivid
But she will take them all again until she's passed out
Can barely handle anything between the blackouts
And thats escapism:
Searching for some replacement
And trying to find some faith
But there's nothing she can base it in
She puts it back together, falls apart
And then repeats
Keeping the history hidden under the sleeves, yea
I know you hate it
And you've got the right to leave
But know if you don't lose the guilt
Then you will never be complete, no

I see you falling with nobody there to catch you
This life don't have to be some shit that we just get through
I bet you don't wanna let nobody in
But know it's only killing you in the end

Ms. Humpty Dumpty, I think we might be onto something
Break It all apart
And put it together
Just to make nothing
Where'd your queen go?
Cuz every single person that tries just dies in the cycle
Let it all go
Because we all know
You're broken inside more than the outside will ever show
And all the queens horses
And all the queens men
They weren't good enough to ever put her together again (put her together again)

You gon' see when it's all done
You built these walls that you fall from
Haunted by these moments
Living in a hell where it's easy to feel you're hopeless
Ms Humpty
Used to be so lovely
Looking for some beautiful
But only finding ugly dumpty
Woke up broken, went through her day
The she put herself together
Just to wake up broken again (wake up broken again)

Ms. Humpty Dumpty, I think we might be onto something
Break It all apart
And put it together
Just to make nothing
Where'd your king go?
Cuz every single person that tries just dies in the cycle
Let it all go
Because we all know
You're broken inside more than the outside will ever show
And all the kings horses
And all the kings men
They weren't good enough to ever put her together again
