Mosaic

My mosaic of you
Is gathered from all the rooms
We painted blue
With faded youth
And there's a flicker of green
In eyes too careless to see
All of the dreams
You drew between you and me

When my stained glass heart falls apart
It'll crack right through the dark
That you left me in
Cause you're just such a gentleman

You only love me when I'm broken into pieces
You're the artist, I'm your sculpture
Mold me honest, hold me closer
The things I hide to get you outta my head
The colors I create to see you instead
You take it slow
And leave me hung by a thread
Cause you can't see it yet
You can't see it yet

And the mosaic of this artist
Is an artifice of promises
That you left in the closet
Just to work on someone else
Honey
Trembling from the happenings
Assembling all the scraps you can
Did you just make me sad so you could
Feel something yourself?
Funny

And my stained glass heart falls apart again
But I won't stay in the dark
That you left me in
Cause you were just the start of it

You only love me when I'm broken into pieces
You're the artist, I'm your sculpture
Mold me honest, hold me closer
The things I hide to get you outta my head
The colors I create to see you instead
You take it slow
And leave me hung by a thread
Cause you can't see it yet
You can't see it yet

The things I hide to get you out of my head
The colors I create to see you instead
You take it slow
And leave me hung by a thread
Cause you can't see it yet
You can't see it yet

Don't treat me so delicately
Now you don't get to hold me gently
Cause I meant more to you in my mind
Didn't I?
