Assemblage 23 – Damaged
Posted by isecore on June 16th, 2009
This song is on never-ending repeat here right now. It’s my anthem. My motivation.
—
I am merely the product
Of the life that I’ve lived
An amalgam of sorrows
And the wisdom they give
But the weight has grown heavy
And its dragging me down
It’s so hard not to sink now
But I don’t want to drown
I’m damaged
But somehow I’ve managed
This far
But I don’t know if I can find my way back home
I’m damaged
But somehow I’ve managed
For now
But I don’t think I can face this on my own
There is beauty in hardship
There are poems in grief
There are trials we must go through
Though they may shake our beliefs
But I don’t know how I got here
Lost in the cynical dusk
Set adrift in the worry
That I’ve no one to trust
If to suffer is holy
I’ll take my share of the pain
I can swim through this sadness
If there’s something to gain
I can reach for the surface
And try to pull myself free
But the last thing I want is
To drag you down here with me
