lyrics

She tied the glass up to the bed posts
The sound of falling
Woke up everyone we know
the sound said “just a change of heart”.

I’ve lived a glass blowers life
full of steam and warm, hot blooded air
Sunlight chases all of lights
of the moon and glassy stars
away.

I said that I hate my heart.
It’s a rotten apple.
I meant that I hate my brain
it jumbles fruit into my metaphors.

She asked “Where was this glass made?”
A loaded question
Across the desert, far away.

Oh, here it comes again
The earthquake rocks my head
The quaking breaks my bed
Into cracks too large for me to flee

Whoa, now I see
The beauty lies next to me
Rough edges get washed empty.

After all, It’s just a phase for me.

I’m waiting for my glass to break.
