Caused by divorced parents.
To hate,
And be hated.

To love and lost,
And never love again.

Where there should be love,
There is only more despair.

To be tired,
And never get to rest.

To play a game,
That ends with a bang.

To tell of your problems,
And be ignored.

To plea for help,
And be turned away.

To try and save a life,
And realize there’s nothing you can do.

To need someone most,
And find yourself alone.

This is the Ballad Of The Broken
