Shattered

Shattered

Picking up the pieces once again
From the best laid plans of this old man
I used to think I could do anything.

Shattered shards they're scattered cross the floor
Leave the room behind and lock the door
Out of sight and mind I can't feel the sting.

I was always born to be broken
Never was made to be whole
Maybe I'm just meant to be frozen
Fractured shadows deep in my soul
Breaking, Shattered,
Bleeding, scattered....
Shattered, woah... I'm shattered

Pulling out a paper one more time
Messages of hope I'm disinclined
I never know just quite what to say.

Slanted spooks of fantasies I've lost
Chasing dreams I never knew the cost
Passing purposes I just can't pay.

I was always born to be broken
Never was made to be whole
Maybe I'm just meant to be frozen
Fractured shadows deep in my soul
Breaking, Shattered,
Bleeding, scattered....
Shattered, woah... I'm shattered

Matching up the pieces once again
From the puzzled plans of this old man
Forever I'm afraid I'll feel the sting.

Shattered shards still scattered cross the floor
By this time you'd think I knew the score
Holding out for what tomorrow brings.

I was always born to be broken
Never was made to be whole
Maybe I'm just meant to be frozen
Fractured shadows deep in my soul
Breaking, Shattered,
Bleeding, scattered....
Shattered, woah... I'm shattered

I was always born to be broken
Never was made to be whole
Shattered, woah... I'm shattered
