A state of mind
Thats what they call it
But its a state of heart
A battered heart
Beautiful and broken
Fluttering mimicking a birds wings
We
Yeah
We
Us the mistreated
We understand
Pain comes from the heart
It's a deep depression
From the heart
Dressed in fury and rage
Agony and despair
The battered hearts
Stand
And they will be strong
They rise
They fight
For their cause
For whats right
