Lyrics Broken Glass (2007) - The Boxer Rebellion

Broken Glass (2007)

Unconscious in waves
Short sighted when you wake up
Given over to thieves
Deserted when you won’t agree
Withered down to your shell
A brave face for your last farewell
And whatever you say
Subscribed to too much way too late
And I break apart
Broken Glass
Through my heart
We’ll toast
Convenient lies
When everyone
Is occupied
You’re animated at ease
Anything for those you try to please
And I’m wearing thin
From what I cannot keep in
And I break apart
Broken Glass
Through my heart
We’ll toast
Convenient lies
When everyone
Is occupied
(Bridge)
You make up more than I can tell
Even someone that I know so well
Branding everything a cheap come down
The marked offender who fucks around
I get the message, the buckled knees
The voice of reason that I concede
The candidate in a losing race
Forced to blackmail to save some face
But I know
And I break apart
Broken Glass
Through my heart
We’ll toast
Convenient lies
An everyone
Is occupied
