LJ4 - Broken Walls

I couldn't trust her
And now I suffer
I chose to trust her
And now I suffer
But God
I really loved her
Now this is what I utter
From down in the gutter
A song of defeat
Why did this happen? Happen to me
I walked with God. I walked free
Then with the devil. He gave me a leash
But I couldn't see. I was deceived
I was all wrapped up like under the tree
Wrapped up in lies like Adam and Eve
All I wanted is for us to work
But you chose to shove me in the dirt
And the devil told me that's what I'm worth
I tried my best to bless you but you left me with a curse. yeah

Why's it have to end like this
Why's it gotta end at all
I believe God can fix
All of these broken walls
Now I'm stuck in an abyss
Feeling too weak to crawl
And as I place back these bricks
You're breaking these broken walls

When they fall they take me down with them
Someone take me from this never-ending system
God, please listen. Why am I the victim
I'm in prison with every sickness every symptom
I believed till the end with all my heart
Other fish in the sea, but she was a shark
Should've never ever let down my guard
How you (sup)posed to turn back when you went too far
Found out I don't really know who you are
These walls are broken and so am I
My wings are broken show me how to fly
Her lying style was versatile
Showed her how to laugh showed me how to cry
And I look to the blue sky
Hope God helps me in due time
But my father that was crucified won't leave me out here to die

Why's it have to end like this
Why's it gotta end at all
I believe God can fix
All of these broken walls
Now I'm stuck in an abyss
Feeling too weak to crawl
And as I place back these bricks
You're breaking these broken walls

These broken walls
These broken walls
