Fractured thoughts in my skull Splintered soul, can't get control Intellect burns through my hands I reach for peace, it slips like sand Dreams lie shattered on the floor Every answer opens more Pain keeps tapping at the door I hear it laughing when I fall The world won't hear me The world won't change I speak in fire They call it strange Broken mind (broken mind) Brilliant light (brilliant light) Pain turns gold In the blackest night Madness reigns (madness reigns) Takes its hold (takes its hold) I survive With a scarred-up soul Silver thoughts in poisoned rain Sharp as glass inside the brain Bloodshot eyes, I see it clear Truth comes cheap, but never near Every warning meets a wall Every hope gets set to crawl I build a tower from the wreck Then watch them crush it, piece by piece They want silence I want truth They want comfort I want proof Broken mind (broken mind) Brilliant light (brilliant light) Pain turns gold In the blackest night Madness reigns (madness reigns) Takes its hold (takes its hold) I survive With a scarred-up soul Suffering fuels the blade Cuts a path through the haze If I break, I break in blaze If I fall, I fall awake Echoes scream in the wire Tortured cries feed the fire I was born to burn higher Through the grief, through the liar Broken mind (broken mind) Brilliant light (brilliant light) Pain turns gold In the blackest night Madness reigns (madness reigns) Takes its hold (takes its hold) I survive With a scarred-up soul Broken mind (broken mind) Brilliant light (brilliant light) Suffering fuels My creative might
