I am broken
I am bitter
I’m the problem
I search for answers within myself
And outside of myself
All I see is conflict.

I am broken
I am bitter
I’m the problem
I search for answers in others
And in the world around me
All I see is conflict.

I am broken
I am bitter
I’m the problem
I search for answers in the prizes painted gold
And the trophies lost in the dirt
All I see is conflict.

I am broken
I am bitter
I’m the problem
I look for forgiveness where it will never be found
I seek understanding in places that it will never be known
All I see is conflict.

I am broken
I am bitter
I’m the problem.

But maybe I need to find contentment
In the things that make me restless.
