Glass Casualty
Hey...
I know you're there
I don't where there is
But you said you're not here right now
Where is here
Hmm...
These questions we have
If I could relax
Not stumble and collapse
Maybe then I could find
My truth
Weighed down to the floor
The answer I long for
Gets further with every step
I take
Dreams call me away
Like songbirds made of clay
In the shade of the tree
My shadow can agree
That acclimation swallows
You whole
Missing all of my cues
Trip over vacant shoes
Withered from all the miles
We've shared
Reflections feel the pain
Of lives they can't sustain
Glass casualty
I wish it wasn't me
I gaze into the mirror
Confused, lost
Alienated by the stranger in front of me
"You're supposed to be me" I say
As my accusational stare
Is met with a pair
Of lifeless eyes
"And you're supposed to be you" he responds
With an honesty
That casts a guilt
Too heavy to bear
All this becomes too much
As I shatter
Into a million fractured shards
I know you're there
I don't where there is
But you said you're not here right now
Where is here
Hmm...
These questions we have
If I could relax
Not stumble and collapse
Maybe then I could find
My truth
Weighed down to the floor
The answer I long for
Gets further with every step
I take
Dreams call me away
Like songbirds made of clay
In the shade of the tree
My shadow can agree
That acclimation swallows
You whole
Missing all of my cues
Trip over vacant shoes
Withered from all the miles
We've shared
Reflections feel the pain
Of lives they can't sustain
Glass casualty
I wish it wasn't me
I gaze into the mirror
Confused, lost
Alienated by the stranger in front of me
"You're supposed to be me" I say
As my accusational stare
Is met with a pair
Of lifeless eyes
"And you're supposed to be you" he responds
With an honesty
That casts a guilt
Too heavy to bear
All this becomes too much
As I shatter
Into a million fractured shards
