Beaten Battered Broken Song Lyrics
I had to be a people pleaser cus nothing pleased my mum
I never got approval she made me feel so numb
So I needed TLC and to hear the words “well done”
It made me easy peasy I was treated like I'm dumb
You’re telling me it’s my fault for being how she taught
as long as I fall short I need the drugs to mask results
She believed the bloody worst in me now I believe it too
And since I’m so very useless what on Earth am I to do
the friends I found were ego feeders
selfish through and through
and being just a nobody
was all I ever knew
So when chances came
they kicked me down
And just like Sue
they'd go to town
too selfish to be satisfied
my helplessness
their honoured pride
They are all just little nobodies with image to protect
The sort to take a people pleaser leave him as a wreck
they are overcompensating for the things they have not got
The girls don’t ever look at them the girls don’t think their hot
They think they’ve lost a friend and that they did no wrong
They say it’s all my fault as they have said all along
Praise them their so perfect and let’s sing a classy song,
let’s sing a classy song, how the brilliant live on
Fakers make denial with their superficial traits
They do everything perfectly and always blame their mates
Heavyweights with tongues talking narcissistic dumb
They can alter falsify and rise as champions
Talk until they visualise
fulfilment for their missing lives
where self reflection terrifies
posing perfectly a prize
And I am beaten battered broken
cut open I am potent
the nucleus is choking devoted
number one opponent
If you were a friend of mine
down until the end of time
And I left you a friend behind
do you think there's no reason why?
Deny the facts and make up lies
Believing in your alibi’s
Never been accountable
Have you worked it out yet fool
Who knows when the boys grow to men
talking grown up but act like children
I don’t feel for them, as they still depend
words are worthless when the talk’s pretend
