Born to be Broken

I bow down to hunger and I'm poisoned by sex
My mind can't tell the difference between a phone screen and a girl in my bed
And I'm full of hate 'cause my brain won't stop replayin' all my regrets
Spend my days mixin', overthinkin' with drinkin'
'Til I'm lost in my head

I was born to be broken
Never stood a chance
Tried crawlin' out but the closer I get
The walls just grow higher so I just let go
My home's at the bottom with Mom and Dad, both
We smoke all our cigarettes and curse at the sun
It seems like it shines down on everyone but us

I bow down to hunger and I'm swallowed by sleep
But I'm scared to death if God's real he'll have mercy on everyone but me
What if I never become the father I wished mine would be
And what if I do everything to change and can't escape the worst versions of me

I was born to be broken and I never stood a chance
Tried crawlin' out but the closer I'd get
The walls just grow higher so I just let go
My home's at the bottom with mom and dad both
So we smoke all our cigarettes and curse at the sun
It seems like it shines down on everyone but us

I was born
Born to be broken
I was born
Born to be broken

So pour down a double
'Cause I ain't got healthcare
Fill up my lungs with anything but fresh air
I drown in caffeine to flip off the nightmares
Tomorrow I'll change, Lord I swear but tonight

Pour down a double
'Cause I ain't got healthcare
Fill up my lungs with anything but fresh air
Drown in caffeine to flip off the nightmares
Tomorrow I'll change, Lord I swear

So pour down a double
'Cause I ain't got healthcare
Fill up my lungs with anything but fresh air
Drown in caffeine to flip off the nightmares
Tomorrow I'll change, Lord I swear

I was born
Born to be broken
I was born
Born to be broken
