Pile Of Broken Tools Lyrics - Singles - Officer Negative

Drawing back 

Now I see 

The pile of broken tools 

Beneath the dust 

In the darkness 

Some were useful once 

But some have never been 

We all lie stagnant 

With our hands around our necks 

Rusted with 

decisions from the past 

First shafts of light 

sting my eyes 

But I welcome the warmth 

to burn the scars 

But I hold so closely 

The things that I despise 

Someone make me useful 

Something give me life 

I had a taste of something real 

But I quickly shut the door 

I just want to leave it all 

In the pile on the floor 

I've opened up before 

And that's how I've been destroyed 

Shattered by those I love 

My hinges are rusted shut 

(x2) 

I know what I must do 

Pry open my heart again 

In faith that you 

Will never do the same 

Drop all that I've become 

Its so hard to let my whole life go 

Like a soft breeze 

You blow it all away 

The scales have finally been removed 

The scars finally start to fade 

Is this it? 

The truth I've been looking for? 

It is! 

I give it all 

Come 

and make me new again 

(x4)Come.
