Glass
No one touch me, I chip like glass
Pray the darkest night will pass
I’m to common to have class
Come take me home to midnight mass.
Don’t protect me, I can fight
Shielded eyes won’t block the sight
Crosses burning on the lawn
By the morning I’ll be gone
They can’t keep me covered up
Telltale lies are not enough
Try your best, my blood runs blue
You don’t know what I can do.
Dirty water, cleanse my soul
Ferryman will take his toll
Half dead, running to the light
Devil’s grip is still too tight
Leave me here, I have no heart
Lost and falling through the dark
Lightning strikes, I catch on fire
Throw the witch onto the pyre.
No one touch me, I chip like glass
Pray the darkest night will pass
I’m too common to have to class
Take me home.
