Shattered Glass

The clock ticks slow the night won't end

Your shadow lingers like a friend

But friends don’t leave this kind of ache

Like walking barefoot through heartbreak

Shattered glass under my feet

Every step cuts deep so deep

I loved you once I loved you fast

But nothing perfect ever lasts

The wind it whispers your old name

It stings my chest it fans the flame

The photos curl the edges burn

Still I can't teach my heart to learn

Why do the echoes feel so loud

When the world outside is full of crowd

Shattered glass under my feet

Every step cuts deep so deep

I loved you once I loved you fast

But nothing perfect ever lasts

You were the sun you were the storm

You broke me down then kept me warm

But even storms must fade away

And leave the wreckage in their wake
