Broken Leg
Mending the Soul: Will Breman's Broken Leg Story
Lyrics
The sun rose over East Beach today
The day started at East Beach with the sunrise.
And the boats are on the water
Boats are present on the water.
I need to breathe in and feel some peace
The need for tranquility and deep breaths is expressed.
But I woke up with an unrelenting stormcloud
Woke up with a persistent feeling of turmoil.
Lodged within my stomach
A metaphorical stormcloud causing discomfort in the stomach.
Disregarding everything around me
Being oblivious to surroundings, focusing on internal struggles.
It's something I wish I could just pry out
Expressing a desire to remove the internal struggle.
And up till now I've tried to ignore it
Ignoring the issue has been the approach until now.
Cause that's what my family says will work
Following family advice to ignore and avoid the problem.
But despite my own actions and protests
Personal attempts and objections have not helped.
This unforgiving weakness and sadness
Acknowledging persistent weakness and sadness.
Has only gotten worse
The emotional state has deteriorated over time.
I don't want to walk on a broken leg
Expressing a reluctance to endure pain or hardship.
I should get it treated, not pretend that I'm okay
Suggesting the need for proper treatment instead of pretending to be fine.
And oh, it's hard to function when the pain
The difficulty in functioning when in pain is highlighted.
It hurts like hell
The pain is described as intense.
So I guess I should go get some help
Considering the option of seeking help for the pain.
And I've felt safe within my misery
Feeling secure in the familiarity of misery.
Finding comfort in my parsonage
Finding solace in a personal space, away from others.
Where no one has to know how much I hurt
Keeping the extent of personal pain hidden from others.
And I've tried to keep all of my friends close
Maintaining close relationships with friends.
And fix my soul and eyes upward
Attempting spiritual or emotional healing.
But my body still wants to make itself burst
Physical and emotional struggles persist despite efforts.
I don't want to walk on a broken leg
Reiteration of not wanting to endure hardship.
I should get it treated, not pretend that I'm okay
Emphasizing the need for proper treatment.
And oh, it's hard to function when the pain
Highlighting the challenge of functioning amidst pain.
it hurts like hell
Reiterating the intensity of the pain.
So I guess I should go get some help
Considering the option of seeking help for the pain.
I don't want to walk on a broken leg
Reiteration of not wanting to endure hardship.
I should get it treated, not pretend that I'm okay
Emphasizing the need for proper treatment.
And oh, it's hard to function when the pain
Highlighting the challenge of functioning amidst pain.
It hurts like hell
Reiterating the intensity of the pain.
So I guess I should go get some help
Considering the option of seeking help for the pain.
I guess I should go get some help
Acknowledging the necessity of seeking assistance.
