Today I speak with heavy heart Red as the crimson drips after picking up pieces of shattered glass I sat for an hour or so on my kitchen floor a broken soul Have I failed you? Because I know I failed myself What else is there to do after a war torn path leaves nothing but dust and ash? I am on all fours in grief Numbness to the pain has worn off I am open But am I free? I hope I can repair these damages I want my future to be free But for now all I can do is pray for air

Bittersweet (Numb)
Today I speak with heavy heart Red as the crimson drips after picking up pieces of shattered glass I sat for an hour or so on my kitchen floor a broken soul Have I failed you? Because I know I failed myself What else is there to do after a war torn path leaves nothing but dust and ash? I am on all fours in grief Numbness to the pain has worn off I am open But am I free? I hope I can repair these damages I want my future to be free But for now all I can do is pray for air
