YOU AINT BROKEN
John Common Nov 2010
Life can be so mean and cruel
Make you feel like such a fool
Take you back to middle school
Lost your way, Lost your cool
You left your heart open wide
Someone shoved a knife inside
So you filled the hole with wounded pride
No one knows the scars you hide
You’re not a lover, you’re not a friend
You won’t ever trust again,
Took your bitter medecine
Washed it down with could’ve beens
But when you come to something tough
And you don’t think you’re strong enough
Remember…
You aint broken, You aint broken
You aint broken, You’re just scared X 2
I know you wanna run, I know you wanna run
But when you wanna run, stay right there
You aint broken, you’re just scared
Vulnerable – is that a joke?
Nobody’s laughin’, you wanna choke
Sleepwalker finally awoke
When everything inside you got broke
You’re made of stone, you’re made of steel
You know the game, you know the deal
You’re in control now, hand on the wheel
Drive away ‘cause people don’t heal
You’re sealed off, you’re shut down
You’re breakin’ hearts all over town
You wear your scars like a crown
No one ever turns you into their clown
But when you come to something tough
And you don’t think you’re strong enough
Remember…
You aint broken, You aint broken
You aint broken, You’re just scared X 2
I know you wanna run, I know you wanna run
But when you wanna run, stay right there
You aint broken, you’re just scared
