lyrics

I’ve been trapped beneath the glass
An ornament of my own madness
A crystal ego to be shattered
Crazy diamonds to be scattered

Maybe I’ll bring on the sadness
Maybe I’ll turn more to less
Clothes and dreams
And flags are tattered
Maybe none of it has mattered

If I stepped over the barrier
If I fled across the border
Running to a self-promised land
Holding out my ever empty hands

Seeing more than I could ever reach
Seeing more than I could ever be
Who turned love into a tragedy?
It’s me that makes it so hard for me

Once I felt us
In another time
Once I knew us
As one design

We shared a sky
It was pure sunshine
Forgive me angel
The fall was mine
