lyrics

"The Shattered Truth"



(this program contains subject matter and laguage that may not be suitable for some viewers)



she has nothing left to give it's all been taken

the burning in her soul has all but sizzled out

descretion gets the best of her it's for the saken

she has given up on everything's she's figured out

she is out in the cold

she is left retired

she has nothing left to give

it's all just goodbyes

hopeless on the street

with nothing good to eat

she pulls her blanket over her head and weaps



come on build this fire

warm you up inside

shaken down

given up in time

never underestimate yourself

just be yourself

and pick up the pieces of the shattered truth



time has come to take the next block off her patience

all cleaned up, feeling free, and all dried out

correction has sent herself into the new begings of her life and she's getting things all figured out

she's been out in the cold

and never left retired

she has everything left to give it's all not goodbyes

helpful to the street

plenty of food to eat

she takes her blanket, pulls it from her head and sings




come on build this fire

warm you up inside

shaken down

given up in time

never underestimate yourself

just be yourself

and pick up the pieces of the shattered truth



(you know our story is dramatic certainly? i mean, i started drinking when i was thirteen and

it started out very innocently and i was introduced to drugs and very quicly what happened to make a long story short,

is my drinking and using got very large and my life begin to get very small and all the things that were inportant to me

started to fall off the side and my parents did everything they could to try to help, manage, control

including sending me to three treatment facilities and atlast i ran from everyone. i ran from every facility

and the last time i escaped, i came to my mom's house and she came to the door and she said i'm so glad that you are alive

and you are not welcome in my home or in my life until you are living a life of recovery and if i never see you alive again i want you to know how much you will be missed and she closed the door on me.)
