Did you know me

Long ago

Were we close

Before the sorrow

If you thought of leaving any traces

I'll be sifting through the broken places



Did i know you

Once upon a time

You dreamed of me

And now i'm

Searching for myself in strangers' faces

Stumbling onto further broken places



She turns purple

Am i blue

Can't she fathom

What i do

Trying to get in her better graces

Touching her in all the broken places



I get crazy

Not sure why

Solace beckons

Until i

Go tearing off again on wild chases

Crashing into same old broken places



I am young so

Who's to say

But for now i

Have no way

Of knowing how much healing time erases

Certain of these secret broken places



Can't there be a

Little breather?

Our love is a

Real seether

To sore hearts we plead our hapless cases

Rendezvousing at the broken places



I love you for

All of this

Struggling towards

Happiness

When the chips are down we play our aces

Hiding them in our broken places
