Brittle Glass

Months, in pain
Fright, unease
Walls, break down
Wait — in vain
How can I keep you close
When you’re not listening
Don’t you see the pain you’ve caused
The things you’ve did
Put me through
But please
Will you care?
Day by day
I watched this love decay
Watched its colors fade
Seems I’m the one to blame
The one to blame
Mistaken love for apathy
It’s time to burn this house we once raised with our bare hands with our bare
hands
In the bed we’ve built
You’ve slept with someone else
And since the time’s passed
I’ve learned
The night’s only as dark
As I make it out to be
But with a blindfold wrapped around your head
It’s hard to see the lights in the distance
Uncover my eyes
Let me see the truth
Months, in pain
Fright, unease
Walls break down
In vain
Day by day
I watched this love decay
Watched its colors fade
Seems I’m the one to blame
The one to blame
Mistaken love for apathy
It’s time to burn this house we once raised
With our bare hands
With our bare hands
Always wanted to save you
From myself
But now it’s that
I want to save myself from you
I hope these words
Will leave a mess
In your head
Find their way into your bed
