Lyrics: Brandon Robert Akin
Music: Brandon Robert Akin
The broken glass
From the microwave
Is reflecting your glow tonight
Your eyes are telling me
That I'm alive
I hope all these beautiful memories
Aren't ruined by the clothes
I'm wearing right now
(Let your body eat you up)
I did something wrong today
And I meant it in the right way
And I don't know how to say this
In a polite way
But I'm a lightweight
And I overdose the truth
If I had it my way
I'd overdose on you
I'd tell you what I hold back
Every time I get close to you
(Is it true or does it live
In a daydream?)
If I die tonight
Can I lay my head down
Knowing it was alright?
Lesson learned
Douleur
I could never figure it out myself
Maybe I'm the weakness
Giving you hell
Maybe I'm the void in your chest
That you've been trying to fill
And now we're breaking our hands
Just to make it work
I guess broken bones
Are what we deserve
And now I can't hold on
'Cause my grip is gone
And all I'm left with
Is silence in a daydream
If I die tonight
Can I lay my head down
Knowing it was alright?
Lesson learned
Douleur
Slow down
I can feel your gaze
Slipping through the cracks
Along my skin as I
Struggle to breathe
Know now
It takes a lot to walk away
It takes a lot to be the change
Every day
If I die tonight
Can I lay my head down
Knowing it was alright?
Lesson learned
Douleur
The broken glass
From the microwave
Is reflecting your glow tonight
Your eyes are telling me
That I'm alive
