Broken vs the Way We Were Born Lyrics
where to now?
drifting his body
cutting you down
and i cant pretend
his eyes don't burn, holes
in your skin
now all i see is the filth
in the hands of another man
his face in my thoughts,
my words become lost
and no longer make sense
am I lost forever?
the damage has been done
for so long
how did you ever see me broken?
well you forced me to find out everyday
did you ever see me open?
well you forced me to find out everyday
nobody could,
keep me helpless, no
the depths that I was brought up
the depths that I was brought up
brought up
oh, well is it any wonder
shallow is the way that I was born
shallow is the way that I was born
the way that i was brought up, up
tonight
am I lost forever?
the damage has been done
for so long
how did you ever see me broken?
well you forced me to find out everyday
did you ever see me open?
well you forced me to find out everyday
oh pretty girl
keep batting your eyes
'cause when you breathe you lie, lie
oh pretty girl
your better think twice
'cause second chances are rarer than I
how can we forget who we have become
I'll give it all up.
please wake up.
every breath you take, is a lie
how did you ever see me broken?
well you forced me to find out everyday
did you ever see me open?
well you forced me to find out everyday
drifting his body
cutting you down
and i cant pretend
his eyes don't burn, holes
in your skin
in the hands of another man
his face in my thoughts,
my words become lost
and no longer make sense
the damage has been done
for so long
well you forced me to find out everyday
did you ever see me open?
well you forced me to find out everyday
keep me helpless, no
the depths that I was brought up
the depths that I was brought up
brought up
shallow is the way that I was born
shallow is the way that I was born
the way that i was brought up, up
tonight
the damage has been done
for so long
well you forced me to find out everyday
did you ever see me open?
well you forced me to find out everyday
keep batting your eyes
'cause when you breathe you lie, lie
oh pretty girl
your better think twice
'cause second chances are rarer than I
I'll give it all up.
please wake up.
every breath you take, is a lie
well you forced me to find out everyday
did you ever see me open?
well you forced me to find out everyday

i think it may be "'cause second chances are better denied".
Oh pretty girl, you better think twice 'cause second chances are rarer than I
This is my favorite song off the new album.
oh pretty girl :)
It's ACTUALLY 'hey pretty girl you better think twice cause second chances are more rare then I.'
Jonny craig tweeted this in May. so I'm pretty sure it's right. ;)
Im quite sure he is singing,
nobody could, "keep me helpless, no" the depths that I was brought up the depths that I was brought up brought up
Yeah, I hear that too.
Yeah, I hear that too.
i actually like this song. ehh butttt whuutttevvv all the meanings are the same.
pretty sure it's "and i cant pretend his eyes don't burn holes in your skin"
i think he says 'well you forced me to find out every thing.' you can hear the 'ng' sound at the end of the note. i love this song, but i hate how he throws in the cliche 'tonight' at the end of a verse to fill the space. horribly overused word in song lyrics.
@jessX3baby hmmm i dont know if you are talking about all of emarosa's stuff or just this album. I used to ignore jonny's lyrics with emarosa, but the lyrics in relativity have become quite significant to me lately and i think the meanings vary.
Pretty sure the girl cheated on him, and Jonny saw what was going on with his own eyes. He knows she is a liar, and she saw him heartbroken or depressed by the whole situation. "did you ever see me open?" could mean he has a wall up now to guard his emotions.
