[Verse 1]
You said you’d be careful
You said you were kind
Now my makeup’s on the pillow
Like the truth you left behind
Tiny pink prescription
With your name across the lid
You feed me little fictions
Call them “just a stupid kid”
[Chorus]
I’m done trying to tape up porcelain cracks
You keep throwing little stones at my back
You kiss me
Then you twist me
Say you miss me
Then you ditch me
I’m done trying to tape up porcelain cracks
You keep dropping me and calling it love
Every fracture that you painted above
Chips away
Chips away
At the girl you’re scared to touch
[Drop]
[Bass-heavy
Glitchy drop with chopped “por-ce-lain” vocal stabs ducking in and out of the Reese growl]
[Verse 2]
You call it affection
When you pry beneath my skin
Turn my secrets into trophies
Line them up
You always win
Got a cherry plastic locket
Where you hid my better self
Now your shadow’s in my closet
Laughing from the highest shelf
[Chorus]
I’m done trying to tape up porcelain cracks
You keep throwing little stones at my back
You kiss me
Then you twist me
Say you miss me
Then you ditch me
I’m done trying to tape up porcelain cracks
You keep dropping me and calling it love
Every fracture that you painted above
Chips away
Chips away
At the girl you’re scared to touch
[Bridge]
You like me breakable
Don’t you? (oh)
Sweet when I’m shaking
Afraid of the fall
But I look better on the floor
Than hanging on your wall
[Outro / Drop]
[Final half-time drop with harsher bass distortion
Ghostly childlike humming on top
Then sudden cut to dry single vocal]
Porcelain
Porcelain
You don’t get to hold again
Porcelain
Porcelain
I won’t let you break me then
Silence
