Letra de Shattered Pieces
And this is how the world died
and this is how the world died
...i can hear you judging me.
[i'll hear your confession]
i found the best piece of me
[kneel down]
alone, shivering in the dark
[place your face between my thighs]
3 centimeters tall
[& talk to god...]
eating it's heart
.. but you will not feast on me today.
This is how the world died.
Who will slay this thing?
[i forgive you]
Who will play the butcher & end my suffering?
[i forgive you]
... i f*cked the minds of the masses with the fingers of liberty.
this is not a threat. [this is not a threat]
I'm not perfect, i'm not a beauty queen, i'm just me.
[no one escapes this life alive]
We are all,
prisoners here.
[all shapes & sizes]
... i scream for all the women i've never been but i hoped i would be.
[i'm proud of who i am]
Forever, chasing the sun.
[i'm proud of me]
... she bites her trembling mind.
It began as all tragedies do,
[forgive me, she's the one, forgive me]
With pain & deception.
... if you'll be the paper, i'll be the pen.
and this is it .. [i've tasted hell, & it tastes just like you]
my final plea.
No one is coming to save me.
no one is going to change things.
The answers will not drop from the sky.
i will not oneday wake with a different disguise.
The only solution ... is revolution.
[art is war ... fight, fight]
[[pain makes me safe]]
.. the odds were always against me.
[lose weight/clearly think]
I exist.
i am broken.
I exist.
i am broken.
.. if god is my father then i am an orphan.
i am broken.
I'm not a mistake
[my ancestry is a ghost story]
I'm a prophecy
[my love life is a crime scene]
I'm an omen
[my self-esteem is a string of unsolved murders]
The radio is brainwashing me,
filling my head with these self-conspiracies.
.. i am an emotional nightmare ..
I can't hide the pain inside
[builder of my own mythology]
Just tell me ... you're listening.
