When Your Body Breaks

Look around now, everything is green
Not the grey that taints your memory
Paints your day, at night leaves you lonely
If you could only, if you could only

Figure it out now, take the bandaids off
See the hole you almost forgot about
Get some thread and stitch your body up
If you can keep it shut, if you can keep it shut

You've got better things to do than standing there with baited breath
Watching the world pass by in front of you
And wondering if you'll get what's left
Oh! You deserve better than that and you're gonna have it
Your body's breaking, you're left with just your mind
You're gonna be fine, but it'll take time, it'll take time

Hit the ground now, face the fall and dive
It's not as scary as the people who get you high
Get you through another night, get you to give up the fight
Get you to take it right, bend over and take it right

To the bottle, look what you've become
You're a personality instead of a person with one
And no one cares what you think unless it gets them drunk
That's all they ever talk about

I know you've got better things to do than standing there blind, dumb, and deaf
Letting strangers take your pride from you
And wondering if you'll have any left
Oh! You deserve better than that and you're gonna find out sooner or later
Your body's breaking, you're left with just your mind
You're gonna be fine, but it'll take time, it'll take time
