Broken Bones
Embracing Struggles: Finding Happiness Amid Brokenness
Lyrics
Hey now, there's something I should tell you
Expressing a need to share something important
It's keeping me up most nights
Causing sleeplessness due to its impact
I can't sleep
Unable to rest or find sleep
This pressure is more than ordinary
Intense pressure beyond the usual
It's coming down around me
Feeling overwhelmed or surrounded by issues
I can't sleep
Continuing inability to sleep
Now you understand what it means to be alone
Understanding the experience of loneliness
All these nights I spent fighting with the phone
Struggling during nights, likely in emotional battles
When I get so high, I drag myself home
Returning home after reaching an extreme emotional state
Through broken glass until I'm broken bones
Metaphorical reference to enduring pain and hardship
Patience has never been my virtue
Lack of patience as a personal trait
So I just keep pretending that I'm better now
Pretending to be better despite ongoing struggles
My struggle is as real as anything else
Admitting the reality of personal difficulties
And I don't want to feel down anymore
Desire to escape feeling low or depressed
Will it lift you up when you're down?
Questioning if something will offer support during tough times
A bigger house a better yard
Aspirations for a better life or circumstances
You just want the secret to your own happy ending
Seeking the key to personal happiness
There's only so much you can buy
Realizing limitations of materialism in finding happiness
When there's just nothing left to hide behind
Feeling exposed or vulnerable without hiding places
So smile big cause that's the only thing that's real.
Emphasizing the importance of putting on a facade of happiness
