Broken Girls❤Broken Boys

Sheʼs waiting for sunset

She belongs to the night

Heʼs scared of the dark

Sheʼs scared of the light

Cheer up, he demands

He is awfully bossy

Been drinking his feelings

He is awfully saucy

She must have forgot

He forgot he got caught

He got caught taking shots

With some sluts

She hates being sad

She was glad to be mad

’Cuz when things go bad

She goes nuts

Have you met the devil inside?

Made a friend of the devil within?

Did you fight with all of your might?

Or give up and let the devil win?

Heʼs holding a bottle

Good times at the bars

Sheʼs holding a blade

Sheʼs counting her scars

Heʼs drowning his sorrow

Sheʼs cutting her skin

If it hurts tomorrow

They'll do it again

He left her bereft, he couldnʼt stay

Heʼs too far gone, heʼs too far away

One day, he'll pay, heʼs well on his way

To regret

Sheʼs reckless when sheʼs left alone

Sheʼs holding tight her silent phone

Too many sins for her to atone

Or forget

Will you bear the burden and the blame?

Are you ready to finally start healing?

Do you feel guilt for the blood you spilt?

The truth will come out, fuck your feelings

.

He'll drink and be merry

A drunk feels no pain

Sheʼs slicing her thighs up

Just to feel anything

The knives have been sharpened

Slice and dice through the noise

As long as liquor flows freely

Broken girls love broken boys
