Shattered Memories

Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound
Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound

Everything around me has been breaking recently
And I wonder if this is a lesson that God's teaching me
Seeing all that's left of these memories is hurting me
All of my favorite moments are starting to burden me
It's hard to witness this catastrophic event
As they lay broken in a million fragments
I look at myself in those previous presents
And all of the pain I wasn't able to prevent
Good memories were made perfect by you
But now they're scattered all across the floor too
How many times until this is something I'm used to
Until all of the pain becomes Deja Vu
Almost everyone that I care about is gone
So is it really surprising that I'm writing this song
The more that I write the less I belong
Can we sit down and pinpoint the moment I went wrong

Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound
Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound

In all these shards I can see my reflection
And I'm forced to relive the pain of rejection
Maybe with this pain I'll complete the collection
Of horrible things that only aid my depression
I try to piece together memories that gave me peace
Is there a way you can make the pain cease
Even if there was some joy that you could lease
That would make this pain stop for a minute at least
All my feelings are feeling stronger than ever
These pictures of us will lay shattered forever
What if I can't re-create anything better
Than those perfect memories of us together
What'll happen if I choose to stay in this space
Just how much time would I be able to save
Maybe making memories was a waste
If the pain coated stain can't be erased

Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound
Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound

During the instrumental break
I realize how much is at stake
I can't lose everything to these mistakes or
The voices in my head that call me fake
Ignorance is bliss
So let me forget
About the matrix
I lost everything to these changes
Why won't you tell me when the change ends
So I can flee the pain that change sends
Happiness is weak and fleeting
An empty feeling repeating
God can you please bring me to your light
I feel the darkness resting upon my eyes
I feel the loneliness eat me up inside
It fills me and kills me in time
When did my thoughts get so loud
I tried but I can't shut them out
Maybe it would be enough
If I felt your cleansing touch
God I really need your help
I can't keep going by myself
I can't keep going by myself

Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound
Shattered memories lying all around
Try to step over the shards on the ground
Dangerous moments in harmonized sound
Clash against the walls to which they were bound
