Fractured Connections

(mmmmm-mmm) Why do I push them far away to feel at peace?

When all it does is make the quietness increase But letting someone

close is like a blade in my chest I'm tired of the

hurt, God, I just want some rest I wish I wasn't heavy

with this sadness in my mind I wish that some joy was

a thing I could find (yeah)

I fell in love with a friend from the past Knowing deep

down that we never could last

She means the world but I'm keeping it safe

Crying in my head in this lonely place (oh God)

Play the sad music,

let it wash away the pain

I get mad at myself for the way that I feel

Chasing a shadow that can never be real

Some days I wish I was gone from the map

Other days I hope I can slip through the crack And escape

these thoughts that are breaking my heart

Before the whole world pulls me right back apart (sigh)

I fell in love with a friend from the past Knowing deep

down that we never could last

She means the world but I'm keeping it safe

Crying in my head in this lonely place (oh God)

Play the sad music,

let it wash away the pain

Play the music...

It's the only time I feel calm inside

(just let it play)
