Broken Lyrics

Words and Music:
Karma-Ann Swanepoel

Clusters of memories have left me unstable
I'm acting right out of my head
Resilient in views, unfounded but true
The distortion is all that I have
Kept up in cycles - I hate that I'm in them
A plague on my actions - I act
So happy to see you when I'd rather kill you
It's moments like these leave me sickened with dread

Borderline - Broken
That's what you get for pitching your tent
At the edge of reason
That's what you get - that's what you get

Emotion unused is the root of abuse
When it's stamped on your hands you'll attack
Sleep still eludes - while the nightmares confuse
Telling what's real from what's not
I'm bored oh so bored, mind numbingly scarred
Tacking my way through the cuts and the scrapes
Mad oh so mad - I'm deafening on contact
Wishful and watchful of what's coming next
Borderline - Broken
That's what you get for pitching your tent
At the edge of reason
That's what you get - that's what you get

Twist up the logic and follow the mundane
Dismantle the object and cure away the stains
Twist up the logic and follow the mundane
Dismantle the object to cure away the stains
Confined little s***es - enablers - created
Detested above the detestments I have
Locked in my solitude with all the nails I use
Hammering my vices into regret
You promised to save me but how will you find me
And why would you want the destruction to stop?

Borderline - Broken
Borderline - Broken
Borderline - Broken
Borderline - Broken
That's what you get - that's what you get
