Where's the beauty without the cracks? What is color without black? Where's the the love without the hurt? What is success without work?
I like you better broken You look prettier when you bleed I like you better torn open There's music in your screams.
Where's the happy without the sad? What is lucid without knowing mad? Where is life without death? What is having if nothing left?
I like you better shattered Sharp edges glitter in moonlight. You look so beautiful hurting In too much pain to sleep at night.
The pieces don't fit, who's going to fix it? You can't stand, can't sit, who's going to fix you? The bleeding won't quit, who's going to fix it? Fight or flight, run or hit, who's going to fix you?
I like you better broken There's nothing here to mend. I like you better bleeding With your heart in my hand.
With your heart in my hand.
I tried to think of a better way to say this as one of my friends said liking people better broken is quite disturbing. In the end, I have up on that and just decided to let it be what it is: disturbing honesty.
