Here's the lyrics: (Lifehouse - Broken) Quote:

Ahrean, LOVE this song!

I know, I do too! I'd totally forgotten about it but was watching Criminal Minds last night on A&E and it was used.

Shattered (lyrics by O.A.R.)
In a way, I need a change
From this burnout scene Another time, another town Another everything But it's always back to you Stumble out, in the night From the pouring rain Made the block, sat and thought There's more I need It's always back to you But I'm good without ya Yeah, I'm good without you Yeah, yeah, yeah How many times can I break till I shatter? Over the line can't define what I'm after I always turn the car around Give me a break let me make my own pattern All that it takes is some time but I'm shattered I always turn the car around I had no idea that the night Would take so damn long Took it out, on the street While the rain still falls Push me back to you But I'm good without ya Yeah, I'm good without you Yeah, yeah, yeah How many times can I break till I shatter? Over the line can't define what I'm after I always turn the car around Give me a break let me make my own pattern All that it takes is some time but I'm shattered I always turn the car around Give it up, give it up, baby Give it up, give it up, now Now How many times can I break till I shatter? Over the line can't define what I'm after I always turn the car around All that I feel is the realness I'm faking Taking my time but it's time that I'm wasting Always turn the car around How many times can I break till I shatter? Over the line can't define what I'm after I always turn the car around Don't wanna turn that car around I gotta turn this thing around |
I'm Movin' On
I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons Finally content with a past I regret I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness For once I'm at peace with myself I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long I'm movin' on I've lived in this place and I know all the faces Each one is different but they're always the same They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it They'll never allow me to change But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong I'm movin' on I'm movin' on At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone There comes a time in everyone's life When all you can see are the years passing by And I have made up my mind that those days are gone I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't Stopped to fill up on my way out of town I've loved like I should but lived like I shouldn't I had to lose everything to find out Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road I'm movin' on sherri, i love that one you did!! |
the above song, you just dont know. that song literally made me grow up. And leave my husband of 13 yrs!!
the death of a close friend and this song!!! *deep sigh* I spent the morning at an old friend's grave Flowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good man He spent his whole life spinnin' his wheels Never knowin' how the real thing feels He never took a chance or took the time to dance And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye Today is the first day of the rest of my life I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on And learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here Go out on a ledge, with out any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah I wanna be runnin' When the sand runs out 'Cause people do it everyday Promise themselves they're gonna change I've been there, but I'm changin' from the inside out That was then and this is now I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man And when they carve my stone they'll write these words "Here lies a man who lived life for all that its worth" I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on Learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here Go out on a ledge, with out any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah I wanna be runnin' When the sand runs out And as a cold wind blows across the graveyard I think i hear the voice of my old friend Whisper in my ear I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on Learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here Go out on a ledge, with out any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah I wanna be runnin' When the sand runs out I wanna be runnin' when the sand runs out! you have no idea how much growth happened between these two songs... :D |
I've been defeated and brought down
Dropped to my knees when hope ran out The time has come to change my ways On this day I see clearly everything has come to life A bitter place and a broken dream And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind I'll never long for what might have been Regret won't waste my life again I won't look back I'll fight to remain: On this day I see clearly everything has come to life A bitter place and a broken dream And we'll leave it all behind On this day its so real to me Everything has come to life Another chance to chase a dream Another chance to feel Chance to feel alive Fear will kill me, all I could be Lift these sorrows Let me breathe, could you set me free Could you set me free On this day I see clearly everything has come to life A bitter place and a broken dream And we'll leave it all behind On this day its so real to me Everything has come to life Another chance to chase a dream Another chance to feel Chance to feel alive |
Don't sing me lullabies
I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes It's true, I'm doomed 'til dawn shines through Got too many things to do Got friends to see, I can't miss a thing It's true, I'm through I'm screwed, unglued I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes, I never close my eyes You see, they're always there with funny hair, Oh, I'm so scared It happens to me every night Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me They always want to take a bite Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me And if you think this isn't real I'll show you wounds that never heal To them I'm just a happy meal Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me Make the coffee black as night Help me through the night I know their appetite for me I'm meat but I'm sweet as can be And if I do too much booze I begin to snooze I hear the big old floppy shoes It's true, I'm stew, unchewed I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes, I never close my eyes See, they're always there with that funny hair, Oh, I'm so scared It happens to me every night Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me They always want to take a bite Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me And if you think this isn't real I'll show you wounds that never heal To them I'm just a happy meal Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me |

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it They'll never allow me to change But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong I'm movin' on that part takes my breath! and you suffer from CRS, just like the rest of us! :love: |
