Broken Words

Now, I know this doesn’t feel right
Tonight, inside my head
But I fought my way through the memory
And then left it there for dead

Now, I know this doesn’t feel right
Tonight, I’m aching, too
In my hour of apology
I wrote these broken words for you

And since I have no melody
No words, no notes, no song
I only have what I feel
What I should have done all along

I lie awake at night thinking
And I stumble over words I never said
But here they are, here they live
It’s your voice inside my head

In my hour of understanding
I write these broken words for you
