Broken Boy

I tried to write this song as a cry for help
Opened up my phone and it wrote itself
Cuz behind my eyes
And my broken smile
Is a lonely paradise
But imma write this song
From my prison cell

I'm tired of pouring shots just to clear my head
And poring coffee just to take it back to bed
Cuz behind my eyes
And my pointless lies
Is the pain I've tried to hide
I try to open up
But I can't do it well

Isn't it funny
We trade time for money
When the money move slow
But time goes fast
Makes me wonder if it's
Even meant to last
Aint it heartbreaking
We spend our time faking
While the memories slow
And moments pass
But it's alright
I guess that's life

I tried to talk to god
And he said fuck off
Guess a prayer a year
Was not enough
Cuz behind my pride
And the times i tried
There's a broken boy inside
Guess I forgot to call
Till my life was fucked

Isn't it funny
We trade time for money
When the money move slow
But time goes fast
Makes me wonder if it's
Even meant to last
Aint it heartbreaking
We spend our time faking
While the memories slow
And moments pass
But it's alright
I guess that's life

I know you've heard this before
You promised you closed that door
But let's not fight again
Cuz you ain't listening
I know that I'm immature
I know that you wanted more
But let's not fight again
So I don't cry again

Isn't it funny we trade time for money when the money moves slow
Ain't it heartbreaking we spend our time faking while the memories slow

Isn't it funny
We trade time for money
When the money move slow
But time goes fast
Makes me wonder if it's
Even meant to last
Aint it heartbreaking
We spend our time faking
While the memories slow
And moments pass
But it's alright
I guess that's life
