It’s hard to understand when your world’s being ripped apart

When none of it makes sense ‘coz it doesn’t feel right in your heart

With the words you say of how it was, but won’t ever be the same

When it’s your mother and your father and they’re both playing ball with the blame



When it slowly starts sinking in, all that your gonna loose

Like you’re playing eye-spy and weren’t given any clues

How many broken sentences before you fill in the question marks

How much more blood in the water before you’ve called all the sharks



How many nights of screaming before it’s just that eerie silence

How many more poisoned words that are just 3 steps from , yes sir, your highness

When will it all make sense and you won’t have to sleep alone

When will it all come back and you won’t have to listen to the echo’s of a broken home



When will that damaged picture frame find its proper place

When will a smile fall again upon your dark and sadden face

When will you finally decide that you cannot take it anymore

When will your heart rest in your chest

And not discarded and forgotten on the floor



It’s hard to comprehend when your world’s been ripped apart

When none of it makes sense ‘coz you’ve stopped listening to your heart.
