Girl of Glass

Composed of an element so weak, so frail Every time she reaches for the sky She fails The escape from her shattered existence Lies above out of her reach But still, sinking further and further Into her own self-pity The crack, the cut, the shattered tears That hit the pavement The crack, the cut, the shattered tears That hit the pavement In this crumbling existence Like a champagne glass Held together at its last seams Held together at its last seams With every try, there's a little more bleeding As her heart is leaking The crack, the cut, the shattered tears That hit the pavement All she wants to do now is finish this Tip the glass to the floor Watch it shatter In this crumbling existence Like a champagne glass Held together at its last seams Held together at its last seams So she will strive and strive Reaching for the sky As she cuts and bleeds Waiting for the day, she strives to be This broken glass thrown into heaven
