These Shattered Memories call me back
Always finding it's way to my heart
Giving me an attack
Always tearing me apart
I walk on broken glass
Through the pain
I hope it will pass
That my soul can sustain
The pain
That tolled
I walk in this rain
No reason to hold
To hold on any longer
To this Memory that is Shattered
I grew stronger
But it never really mattered
Because inside
I never really cared
You lied
Who cares what burden you beard
I lost it all
To take your hand
To cover your fall
Cutting every strand
Every living thing
On Earth
Started to sing
Upon Birth
These Shattered Memories like a tattoo
It never goes away
I don't know what to do
But I still have to pay
For my mistakes
In this drive
I slam on my brakes
I'm still alive
Waiting on my head
To shatter the glass
Still walking ahead
Hoping it will pass
I can't hold on any longer
To this Memory that is Shattered
Even though I grew stronger
It never really mattered
