Battered

"Battered"

Time and time again
We fall back to where we start
And time and time again
We pick up the pieces of our heart

Broken dreams
Trust at stake
Lies and misfortune
Vulnerability to take

This path I'm on
I've managed to fail

Rising up
Then back down again

Tormenting at its will
Maybe this battered soul will be here
Once the storm comes to a still
