Not Anymore:

Last time I was here I was waiting

For the perfect storm to come

I saw it from the cafe

And under lightning, I had to run

As the porcelain lay broken

Under the feet of weary eyes

Last time I was here I was waiting

For somebody to make me cry

 

Last time I was here I was burning

Under strangely colored lights

If only I did some learning

From all the previous wasted nights

And as I tried to forget the voices

That never seem to go away

Last time I was here I was burning

But I tell everyone I'm okay

 

Last time I was here I was broken

Like I've never been before

I can still smell the smoke and,

I can still hear the door

But as I still remember

All the things from before

Last time I was here I was broken

I'm not broken anymore
