[Verse]
I carry their weight while my knees shake
Every smile I fake another crack in the wall
They never notice the shadow that falls
[Prechorus]
I give them light
But lose my fight
[Chorus]
Shatter me gently I’m made of glass
Every reflection shows the love I lack
I lift them high while I fade to black
Shatter me gently I’ll never ask
[Verse 2]
They call me strong while I drown in the tide
A fortress built on a fault inside
I hold them steady while I break wide
[Prechorus]
They climb my spine
But I decline
[Chorus]
Shatter me gently I’m made of glass
Every reflection shows the love I lack
I lift them high while I fade to black
Shatter me gently I’ll never ask
