lyrics

I know what it means to be broken
And staring down the road of repair
But the process of fitting the pieces together
Leaves me struggling for air

As soon as I touch the glass
The vial falls and cracks
There's no hope of getting back
The tincture it took my life to make

Nothing will hold me together
Blood will fall from me fast
But seeing the sunrise will fool my mind
Into making this new body last

As soon as my fingers touch the glass
The vial falls and cracks
There's no hope of getting back
The tincture it took my life to make
In my hands it starts to break
On contact my fingers start to shake
And I'm back at the bottom

I stare alone
Across the room
The vial still there, breathing
I crawl across the floor
And reach out
Finding nothing, seething

I know there's nothing doing
I'm just kneeling on the floor
Sweeping up my broken dreams
Before making more

As soon as my fingers touch the glass
The vial falls and cracks
There's no hope of getting back
The tincture it took my life to make
In my hands it starts to break
On contact my fingers start to shake
And I'm back at the bottom
