made of glass

it's a lonely world
lately
and with every word
you say,
it gets clear as glass
that I was never meant to last -
when you could never stay.

it's a lonely world
while we're in it
and with every word
that leaves your lips,
you don't understand -
yeah, not even a little bit.

I don't know how it happened,
or whose fault it is -
but ever since that day
something's changed:

I'm lonelier than I was,
I'm made of glass -
and it seems like in your ice cold hands
I can't hold stand,
I turn to sand.

I'm transparent -
I carry my heart on my sleeve,
yet somehow I'm invisible,
not possible for you to really see.

hours pass
and memories might last,
I always kept ours safe behind glass -
but I'm running out of time,
too damn fast, you're leaving me behind -

safe to say I was never really yours,

and you were never really mine...

see right through...
