The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Outside I'm looking for an answer
'Cause inside is gone
Each step, the ground beneath me starts to break
I can't hold on
(Hey you)
Been hurting for a lifetime
(Hey you)
What for?
I can't break it
Hurt is sacred all along
The sting of depression follows
I can't fix it
Pieces don't fit things are worn
Destroyed by a penance to sorrow
Look out the feeling's rushing back again
Too much, too numb
It's ripped the scene I stitch it up again
Somehow it stays on
(Hey you)
Been hurting for a lifetime
(Hey you)
What for?
I can't break it
Hurt is sacred all along
The sting of depression follows
I can't fix it
Pieces don't fit things are worn
Destroyed by a penance to sorrow
Staring back at me
I won't ever be free
Go go go!
(Never be free)
Go go go!
(Never be free)
I can't break it
I can't fix it
I can't break it
Hurt is sacred all along
The sting of depression follows
I can't fix it
Pieces don't fit things are worn
Destroyed by a penance to sorrow
I can't break it
Hurt is sacred all along
The sting of depression follows
I can't fix it
Pieces don't fit things are worn
Destroyed by a penance to sorrow
Go, go, go!
