“Beautifully Broken”

Michael P. Lemon©

Well I may have broken laws

But could not commit the crime

Unlike the ones you broke

When you stole this heart of mine

But that’s alright, I survived

That’s alright, I’m alive today, …I’m okay

And all those sleepless nights

That I could not get through

Thought I lost everything

The night that I lost you

But that’s okay, I got this far

Let the scars, shine like stars today, …it’s okay

Pre-Chorus:

The scars make us who we are

The scars make us who we are

Chorus:

We are part of the underground

We make our peace, without a sound

Unwritten words, never to be spoken

They let us pass, they see it too

They share the scars, with me and you

We are the ones, the beautifully broken

We are one soul, beautifully broken

Verse 2:

Once I dreamed in pictures

I thought were meant to be

Used to see the visions

Until U made me bleed

But somehow, I got thru it all

Dusted off, standing tall again, …let’s begin

These days I try my best

To not look back at all

Move further from the edge

Refuse to take the fall

Won’t make that same mistake

Pieces left, too small to break again, …or to mend

[Repeat Pre & Chorus]

Verse 3:

Time won’t stand still

and it refuses to heal

Bring your scars into the light

You’re not alone in this fight

The scars make us who we are

The scars make us who we are

[Repeat Pre & Chorus]

[Fade]
