Broken

Waking again, don't know why
It's far too still tonight round my bed shadows fall
Thinking of you, where you are
And how I got this far wondering when you might call.

Tired and so alone, I ignore the TV drone
Every heart beat turns toward the telephone.

You're in my mind, in my dreams
I'm cursed or so it seems don't know where to take flight
Always the same old doubt and it turns me inside out
It's so hard to walk away try as I might.

'Cause I'm broken inside pieces of me, intense and obscene
Forced not to show the things that I know
All of the flaws I keep unseen
I turn to you, what else can I do
Hoping to find a way to see through a break in sky
To get through the night discover the peace I wish I knew.

Painting in shades of grey
Sifting through the disarray
Can I find enough of me to make you stay?

'Cause I'm broken inside
Pieces of me, intense and obscene
Forced not to show the things that I know all of the flaws I keep unseen
I turn to you, what else can I do
Hoping to find a way to see through a break in sky,
To get through the night discover the peace I wish I knew.

But you, you turn the tide wash over me, come set me free
I won't question why or try to disguise all of the things you mean to me
I'll trust in you, what else can I do
I can't deny something so true
Look at me now, wondering how I'll keep the peace I found with you.
