lost in thoughts

All this will subside 
All your troubles self-contained 
in every tear you cry 
By now you know that’s all a lie 
Too simple to be real 
Some things cut too deep 
Some wounds never heal 

Gather up your broken self 
and fix it once again 
Though try I will, I’m human still 
and broken in the end 
I’m not sure who I am 
but I know where I’ve been 
And from where I stood before 
I want something more 

How much can you take 
of the sound it makes 
when your heart breaks? 

I know that you can hear me, 
but don’t think you understand 
I need to leave this place behind 
anyway I can 
I’d sell my soul, but it’s been used 
beaten, battered, broken, bruised 
But take it, if it will make the cost, 
'cause now I’m completely fuckin' lost 

Why are you content with this? 
Think of all the things we miss 
There’s so much more that we should know 
So many places we should go 
Why lay in the gutter to stare at the stars? 
We should be more than what we are 

But I am only human, 
so no matter what I gave 
At the end of the day 
someone still has to save me 
I used to know my limits, 
but that was long before 
I was only human, 
but not anymore
