Broken

There's a crowded street in front of me and there's no room behind.
You gotta go on with your life even though the signs say there's no exit for hundreds of miles.

I think your headed for disaster.
I think your headed my way.
It's not like it matters anymore.
You're days from the truth, and further from me.
And it's not like you'll get attention now.
You're the star in this catastrophe

Tell me that you want me now 'cause nobody wants something already broken.
You're just pieces of my day I'll never find.
And it's easy to think through the smiles and the tears that our lives will give up and surrender to years that we didn't have the time or patience for.
Still you're not alone.

I don't remember getting older.
I'm almost 20 and I'm scared to pack my bags and drive away from here.
Seems like when you grow up it's all thrown in your face and this house becomes a temporary home to hide my face.

It's not something I like to brag about.
I'm speeding down this one way street.
And as time goes on you'll realize it's just another thing that I don't need.

Tell me that you want me now 'cause nobody wants something already broken.
You're just pieces of my of my day I've left behind.
And it's easy to think through the smiles and the tears that our lives will give up and surrender to years that we didn't have the time or patience for.

Call off the bet.
I want it back and you can't stand this.
Another bridge to cross, another day behind.

You promised me you'd say you're sorry.
If you'd meant it you'd have changed years ago.
You say I know.

Tell me that you want me back 'cause nobody wants something already broken.
You're just in my way.
And it's easy to think through the smiles and the tears that our lives will give up and surrender to years that we didn't have the time or patience for.
