Lyrics Eggshell - Die Krupps

Eggshell

I live in an eggshell — not as strong as it seems
I protect myself from the world — don’t fit in its scheme
My home is unstable — the walls are wearing thin
I break under pressure — but I’m trying to endure within
Break the shell — and you will regret it
Break the shell — you wish you never did it
Break the shell — you won’t like what you see
Break the shell — you won’t recognize me
Your world around me is cracking my shell
The weight of your problems makes my life hell
Under the pressure from your house of pain
I choose to live in my shell under strain
I’ve tried to conform — I’ve tried it your way
I’ve tried to conform — live my life day by day
This is my reality — my life is in a shell
This is my heaven — outside is my hell
I can’t deny it — I reached my breaking point
I personify it — an eggshell in duress
I can’t deny it — I’m at my limit
I identify with — an eggshell in duress
