Shattered

im wondering

why when i open my mind

its the fear that i find

lost hope undefined

and i watch you drift away

with every word that i say

apart from the love

with open spaces above

but still closes around me

never cease to confound me

when it tries to drown me

as i swallow back my pride

choked up inside

its a fucked up design

in all the places i hide i find

everything broken

through this game we live our lies,

broken though we are.

our pains they have us hypnotized

like we're wishing on a star.

when i look into your eyes,

it seems you're watching from afar.

we search for answers in disguise,

but we find we're broken.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

one little note: the line "through this game we live our lies" was originally lives but i found taking away one little letter gave it a lot more clarity for me
