Shattered Symphony

Glass hearts in a back pocket

Cold truth under my tongue

I came up where the hallway smelled like rain and rust

Made a home from the noise because the floor gave up on

trust You talk brave through a cracked grin,

all pose, all paint I got scars that still shine when the

room says I ain't Every promise hit the sink like a ring

in dirty water Every lesson got learned from a debt,

not from a father Now I spit with my teeth out,

no satin, no disguise Got a fistful of mercy and some fire

in my eyes

Hold it up to the light

See the fracture line

If it breaks tonight

It was never mine

Glass hearts, glass hearts,

breaking in my hands

Still I run straight through it,

I don't need your plans Glass hearts,

glass hearts, shining when they fall If you wanna love me,

love the wreck and all

You sold dreams with a clean shirt and a borrowed phrase I

was counting every bruise like a calendar of days I don't pray

for easy, I just ask for something real Something with a little

blood, something I can feel So I turned my grief to rhythm,

let it kick, let it bite Put the violin on the edge,

let the guitar start a fight Now the mirror says survivor in

a chipped-up frame And the whole damn room gon' remember my name

Take the soft part,

take the fear

I got nothing left to hide here

When it shatters, let it sing

Broken glass can still mean something Glass hearts,

glass hearts, breaking in my hands

Still I run straight through it,

I don't need your plans

Glass hearts, glass hearts,

shining when they fall If you wanna love me,

love the wreck and all Glass hearts on the floor

Still beating for more
