Wounded Lyrics

Lost and broken
Hopeless and lonely
Smiling on the outside
But hurt beneath my skin
My eyes are fading
My souls is bleeding
I’ll try to make it seem ok
But my faith is wearing thin

So help me heal these wounds
They’ve been open for way too long
Help me fill this soul
Even though this is not your fault
That I’m open
And I’m bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me sew them up

I only wanted a magazine
I only wanted a movie screen
I only wanted the life I’d read about and dreamed
And now my mind is an open book
And now my heart is an open wound
And now my life is an open soul for all to see

But help me heal these wounds
They’ve been open for way too long
Help me fill this soul
Even though this is not your fault
That I’m open
And I’m bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me

So you come along
I’ll push you away
Then kick and scream for you to stay

Cause I need someone to help me
Oh I need someone to help me

To help me heal these wounds
They’ve been open for way too long
Help me fill this soul
Even though this is not your fault
That I’m open
And I’m bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me sew them
I need someone to help me fill them
I need someone to help me close them up

To me this song reminds me more than anything of Waldorf Worldwide- on their self-titled about how they wanted to be famous and they were so excited and young and eager. But now that they have achieved that fame it isn't completely what they thought it would be. In Waldorf they sing:

"We'll see you when we get there On the video On the radio In the magazine On the movie screen"

And awesome for them, they made it. Seriously they deserve everything they have worked so hard for but this song makes me so sad because just at that one little part it feels like it's not what they thought it would be:

"I only wanted a magazine I only wanted a movie screen I only wanted the life I’d read about and dreamed And now my mind is an open book And now my heart is an open wound And now my life is an open soul for all to see"

Like sick of being asked by preteen girls to have 10,000 of their babies, and being photographed and whatnot.

Regardless of what it means this is a beautiful song and as always I love hearing Benjamin sing a little bit.

OMG This CD needed more of Benji's vocals and this song sealed the deal for me! I loved the fact that it's a hidden song and I love the fact that it's Benji AND that it's acoustic!

This rocks my socks as all of Good Charlotte's songs do! Benji has an awesome voice and should sing more often! This song has so much meaning and you can hear it in his voice. This is one of my favorite songs!

i think he wants help...help fixing everything that someone else broke. and like someone else already said, i think he thought he wanted something, but now that he has it, it's not all that great.

i am glad that benji sings sometimes. it would be a shame if he hid that voice he has...
