Ballad of the Broken (Demo) Lyrics by Hayden Forbes

0

[Chorus x2]
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
Ballad of the broken
[Verse 1]
An unbreakable bond
Between me and this song
But I feel something's wrong
What's going on?
Adrenaline rush but in the wrong way
Not doing much, but I’m nervous all-day
I’m shaking, I’m quaking
It’s my anxiety, what can I say?
Twisted thoughts of freaking nonsense
Need a doctor for my guilty conscience
That shouldn’t exist, it doesn’t make sense
Still holding up, picket fence
Did that make me sound corny?
Maybe you liked that line
But does that mean you like me?
I can’t decide, tectonic mind
Earthquaked since my first day on this earth mate (earth mate)
Will my wordplay bring nurse aid before my birthday (birthday)
Cause a couple of cheap shots could take me down
But then again who cares about me now
No love just judgment
Bullied, no repercussions
Tired all day but at night I’m an insomniac
Thinking of everything stupid mistake, why does it take me back
Regrets and mistakes sting me like a yellow jack-et
But an overthinker freaking out is all I’ll ever be and that’s it
[Chorus]
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
Ballad of the broken
[Verse 2]
What's the point? It's null and void
We're all just gonna die, without a choice
Grown to feel I don't have a voice
I'm invisible, not like the other boys
I feel empty…
It’s pointless…
My thought’s keep going round and round
Feeling six feet underground
I’ve got tons of meds but they don’t work
You can’t make something out of nothing
Broken promises I won’t hurt
I feel so disgusting
Feels like I’m trapped in a bullpen
No words and a full pen
Blocked by the cage with a mind full of rage
Put the ink to the page now it’s worthless to say
I fight hard to be the tried and truest
But I'm just a firestarter with no lighter fluid
No right therapy that’s why I do this
Finding it hard to speak out what I find abusive
Floating too far off the deep end
Senses are weakened
A general consensus he can
Provide is hope for a new life by the weekend
(Now listen!)
This message isn’t much, just take it as such
A blank face value for you to use, open interp
Inspiring words
It’s what you deserve, what you deserve
I may not be there physically, but I’ll be there in emotion
And this track is the ballad of the broken
[Chorus]
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
(Ballad of the broken, ballad of the broken)
Ballad of the broken
