Lyrics

CLICHE

And I can't stop listening to the ticking of the clock
The bombs dropped and now I'm broken
Lying in the bottom of this dried up well
Dwelling on all the lies I've spoken
I'm choking on the ashes of my yesterdays
I burned down the bridges on which I used to play
And I don't want to wake tomorrow
It was so dark inside today

And I know all the cliches
You can only go up from here
That's only if I stop living with my fear of failure
My jailer has lured me in once again

These are the pieces of my broken heart
Love come make me hole again

It blows my mind sometimes how cruel I've been
And I know I deserve this darkness that I'm living in
Well you wanted it here it is my honesty
You know I used to be different so bright my light shined
Wide eyed and filled with love hope it wasn't lust all the time
So easily the demon took over my insides

And I know all the cliches
You can only go up from here
That's only if I start living with my fear of failure
My jailer has lured me in once again

These are the pieces of my broken heart
Love come make me hole again

So here I am alone with my guitar again
For the first time in awhile I smile because my friend came through and said
You can't change the past
But if I don't change now this my be the last song I sing
There's nothing worse then unfulfilled dreams
So right now this song to me means everything

And I've lived all of those Rock n Roll cliches
Been to the bottom of the bottle and the barrel and the same damn time
And I know I'm way past my prime
But I refuse to just lay down and die

These are the pieces of my broken heart
Love come make me hole again
