[Verse 1]
She keeps her name tucked in
Like a note in a coat
Smiles at the table
Then leaves them all afloat
They talk over her silence
Like it’s empty air
She learned how to vanish
While still standing there
[Pre-Chorus]
And every room goes cold
When she starts to speak
They hear the shape of her
But not the words she keeps
She’s tired of reaching
For a hand that slips away
Tired of being seen
Like she’s only in the way
[Chorus]
Glass girl, glass girl
What do they know?
Glass girl, glass girl
You break alone
Hold on, hold on
Till the feeling fades
Glass girl, glass girl
You were never made
For their half-love
[Verse 2]
She counts the cracks in mirrors
Like old familiar scars
Keeps her heart in pieces
In a box of jars
Every promise that touched her
Turned to paper ash
Every almost-love
Left its little bash
[Pre-Chorus]
And every room goes cold
When she starts to speak
They hear the shape of her
But not the words she keeps
She’s tired of reaching
For a hand that slips away
Tired of being seen
Like she’s only in the way
[Chorus]
Glass girl, glass girl
What do they know?
Glass girl, glass girl
You break alone
Hold on, hold on
Till the feeling fades
Glass girl, glass girl
You were never made
For their half-love
[Bridge]
If love is a door
Why does it lock?
If I say my truth
Why do they stop?
I tried to be soft
I tried to stay
But nobody stayed
When I gave them ache
[Final Chorus]
Glass girl, glass girl
What do they know?
Glass girl, glass girl
You break alone
Hold on, hold on
Even if it’s late
Glass girl, glass girl
You still deserve
More than half-love
