A mind's a fragile thing you take for granted till you lose
And when it's gone, you can't remember where it went
You can keep it all together with the many things you choose
But other things you simply can't prevent
You've been saying I've gone crazy
That I've done things you'd never do
Everything you're saying might be true, but if you'd been broken like I've been broken
You'd go crazy, too
Anger ain't a sin till it determines what you do
That's the opposite of what I'd always thought
So I ignored my emotions and I let my anger brew
Till the ones I loved became the ones I fought
You've been saying I've gone crazy
That I've done things you'd never do
But if you'd walk a mile
In a broken person's shoes
If you'd been broken like I've been broken, you'd go crazy, too
You can never really know what's going on with someone else
And it's rare you can explain the things they do
If you looked inside our hearts, would you see heaven or just hell
Or a constant war that's raging between the two?
You've been saying I've gone crazy
That I've done things you'd never do
When you see me on the streets
Alone and used
Or in the home where I have been abused
Before you judge me as I stand accused
If you'd been broken like I've been broken, you'd go crazy, too
