Broken Pieces
Joie Tan
I lost a part of myself
I was torn apart
searching for the answers
with no clue where to start
finding all the pieces
feeling numb from the darts
I was like a target to be risked
to fill your heart
nothing hurts more than knowing
this irreversible truth
is hurting me and you
banking my hopes in thinking
that everything’s gonna be okay
and you’re here to stay it’ll all be good someday
I wish i didn’t feel like i was never good enough
that there was something i could do to make you feel like you were loved
so you wouldn’t have to search for love that you feel you deserved
now I just stand here with the broken pieces
now I just stand here with the broken pieces
