Broken people



Some come dressed in diamonds and pearls
Some come dressed in nothing at all
All are drinking from the same cup of inner pain
that can't be explained...
chasing broken dreams of what could've of been ...
Broken people in a world full of false pride and ego
..tiptoeing to the beat of never facing defeat... Broken people...
