Effects Towards The Broken

(verse 1)
It feels as though my bones are frozen
But my skin is burning on fire
My mind feels drowned in poison
But each day I try to bring myself higher
Try to bring myself higher

My body shakes like an earthquake
And my voice mutes like a dog
When someone says hello my body compresses
But each time I try to say hi
I try to stay high

(pre-chorus)
You got me stepping on my own feet
I've lost my balance, where's my beat?
I got no music to keep me steady
Then you push me

(chorus)
I fall from your words
Even your looks start to hurt
But I can't stand to see you cry
And I really don't know why
You're opinion screams at me
Feeling your presence makes it hard to breathe
So this house-no-longer
Feels-like-home
So can-you-just
Let-me-go
Oh

(verse 2)
My veins feel like lightning
My eyes bring the thunder
My hands scream to give up
But I try to hang on longer
Try to hang on longer

My back punches my walls
And my tears feel like acid
My mouth tells everyone off
But I never took back the things I've said
Prolly cause I meant them

(pre-chorus)
You got me stepping on my own feet
I've lost my balance, where's my beat?
I got no music to keep me steady
Then you push me

(chorus)
I fall from your words
Even your looks start to hurt
But I can't stand to see you cry
And I really don't know why
Your opinion screams at me
Feeling your presence makes it hard to breathe
So this house-no-longer
Feels-like-home
So can-you-just
Let-me-go
Oh

(verse 3)
This feeling comes around and around again
These thoughts stay locked in my head
I would trap myself in a cage if I had the chance
Just to show people it's the way I live
But when the waves come crashing over me
Somehow I can still breathe
And it's cause I'm used to it
It's no talent, it's a weakness
And I will admit, my head can be lost in the clouds
I could be so high one day and just never come down
But it's better up there, then here in town
Cause the people in town are the ones to blame

(bridge)
Oh~
You've got me tied up with air
Oh~
I don't know how to get out of here
So I'll just dream till it's okay
Even though it never worked for me
But one more shot is all it takes
So here we go

(chorus)
I fall from your words
Even your looks start to hurt
But I can't stand to see you cry
And I really don't know why
Your opinion screams at me
Feeling your presence makes it hard to breathe
So this house-no-longer
Feels-like-home
So can-you-just
Let-me-go
Oh

(outro)
Now I see the darkness fall upon me
I don't see anything but black
All the hope that I once had
Just got up, walked out, it left
