Intro

This song is for the broken

Do not listen to this song if you have never felt what it feels like to be broken

Do not listen to this song if you have never felt what it feels like to feel nothing

My name is Goethe..

Verse 1

Meditate

Drowning deep in feelings till you watch it wash away

Devil's bubbling to the surface just let them play

Still you wonder why your sanity never stays (never stays)

Levitate

Gravity showing a softer side you should stay

Restlessly hitting these blunts cause they never fail

But every cloud been cloudy with a certain chance of grey

Salivate

Let go of desires you should try to walk away

Captivated by the material in your veins

DNA rotting from a deeper kind of stain

Concentrate

Leave this train of thought

Or better still pump the brakes

State of mind tainted by the feelings of your heart

Waiting on the Grimm reaper to come play his part

Resonate

I'm praying I can find you before it gets too late

Silence in your smile is fortelling a scary fate

Living deep in hell still knocking on pearly gates

Chorus

These days I think I need to

(I need to)

Take sometime to find myself

(Find myself)

I know I've been losing touch

(Losing touch)

All this water I could drown

I know I got to row

(Row, row, row)

Row my boat

I know I got to row

(Row, row, row)

Row my boat

Interlude

Verse 2

Gospel truth I hope I find in these verses

Been hitting every button bloody tired of guessing

I've been told that I'm a blessing

Still I'm feeling the opposite

Composite images of life that I'm still battling

Cause they never reconcile

This trigger finger still itching and I've been aching to shoot it

Bury this bullet in my skull

And just end it all

Suicidal emotions got me running suicides

Two sides of the court the ball never dunks

Another lost soul heading nowhere fast

Broken compass

Done racing on empty gas tanks

And I just

Popped a pill with this drink

In this void let me sink

Eternities nothing is way more pleasant than hoping for something I can't get

And if I gotta fade away then so be it

If happiness is free then tell me why I sold my soul for it

I lost my balance fell over the line

(fades away)

And if I could write a thousand stories for you

Showed you a part that's hiding in darkness

Would you believe every word is true?

Would you believe every word is true?

The devil on your shoulders been telling you lies

Angel never speaks been silent too long

Open your eyes step into the light

Open your eyes step into the light

Chorus

These days I think you need to

(You need to)

Take sometime to find yourself

(Find yourself)

I see you've been losing touch

(Losing touch)

All this water you could drown

I know you got to row

(Row, row, row)

Row your boat

I know you got to row

(Row, row, row)

Row your boat
