Little Broken Bits Video (MV)

I used to watch her dance
In empty parking lots
In cheap hotel rooms, she used to dream a lot
About getting out of here while she was still young
She's only eight-teen
And still bright eyed
I wish I could be, too, instead I feel like
I'm a doomsday clock with both my hands right above me
She said "Oh? Oh! Oh... Don't take me home"

"Well I'm a mixed bag of little broken bits
I think you'd hate me too, if you could give a shit
About anybody else, except yourself!"
Hey, why'd you say that?
"I didn't mean it
I'm just in my head, think I might end it
Please don't tell anybody else about my secret"
I said "Oh? Oh! Oh... It's safe with me"

She called me one night
Her dad was screaming
Saying "Let me in, or you'll regret it!"
I jumped out of bed and I drove down to her house
I'm never violent
Been called a pacifist
But he hit her first, and so it's self-defense
I swung my bat, and we ran for the front yard
We said "Oh, oh, oh... This world is f*cked"

But those are memories
About a month ago
She cut all ties and let this fire grow
It consumed her life and she said it could keep it
I'll still send a text
And every now and then
She won't reply, but it'll say "Read"
Just to let me know that her heart is still beating
I heard a new song from your favorite band
I wonder what you think?
I just got your text
"Shit..."
"Hey, how's it going, Kate? It's good to hear from you!"
She said "I tried for weeks, but couldn't follow through"
"Guess you were meant to stay right here after all"
She said "Oh? Oh! Oh... I love you, man"
