broken
Roach Lyrics

Broken home
The singer's family is broken and dysfunctional.

All alone
The singer feels isolated and has nobody to turn to.

I can't seem to fight these feelings
The singer is unable to cope with their emotions regarding their family situation.

I'm caught in the middle of this
The artist is stuck between their parents' issues and cannot escape or resolve them.

And my wounds are not healing
The artist is emotionally hurt and unable to recover from their situation.

I'm stuck in between my parents
The singer is in a position where they are forced to take sides between their parents.

I wish I had someone to talk to
The singer is desperate for someone to confide in, but has nobody to turn to.

Someone I could confide in
The artist is looking for a trustworthy person to share their feelings with.

I just want to know the truth
The artist wants to understand the reality of their family situation, even if it saddens them.

I know my mother loves me
The artist's mother cares for them deeply.

But does my father even care?
The singer feels neglected and unimportant to their father.

If I'm sad or angry
The artist's emotions are not acknowledged or cared for by their father.

You were never ever there
The singer's father was absent and unreliable in their life.

When I needed you
The singer's father was unavailable to provide emotional support or guidance in their life.

I hope you regret what you did
The singer wants their father to feel remorse for his actions towards them.

I think I know the truth
The artist has an idea of the reality of their family situation.

Your father did the same to you
The artist blames their grandfather for the way their father treated them and assumes that the same behavior has been passed down through generations.

I'm crying day and night now
The singer is emotionally overwhelmed and cannot stop crying.

What is wrong with me?
The singer questions why they are so emotionally burdened.

I cannot fight now
The artist feels helpless and unable to change their situation.

I feel like a weak link
The artist feels inferior and like they are not a strong or valuable part of their family.

It feels bad to be alone
The artist does not enjoy feeling isolated and unsupported.

How could I tell it so y'all could feel it
The singer is sharing their story in the hopes that others can empathize with their struggles.

Depression strikes me hard just like my old earth would tell it
The artist's mother warned them about depression and now they are experiencing it firsthand.

To me, her son, she told me I'm the one
The singer's mother confided in them and told them that they are important and special to her.

Pain bottled up about to blow like a gun
The singer cannot hold their emotional pain in any longer and feels like they are about to explode.

Stories that I tell are nonfiction
The singer's experiences are real and factual, not imaginary or exaggerated.

And you can't take it back 'cause it's already done
The artist's past experiences and emotions cannot be erased or changed.

Broken home
The artist's family is broken and dysfunctional.

Broken home
The singer's family is broken and dysfunctional.
