Broken

Don't judge before you know
Don't laugh before you go 
There's more than meets the eye
A broken boy inside

Fighting depression
Fallen prey to the great deception
Life at home is tough
He's almost had enough 
Searching for a meaning 
Not sure which way to be leaning 
Headphones in 24/7
Wants nothing to do with hell or heaven 
Lost, confused, alone
Scared, no place to go
Fighting monsters deep down
He go to hell before he'd make a sound

Don't judge before you know
Don't laugh before you go
There's more than meets the eye
A broken boy inside
