2. Glass..?

"Don't stomp your feet on the ground,"
Her child doesn't know she has lost it all.
Gambled all her money over the secret stores,
Desire seems to have no bound...
So she came here to find it all.
The sweet paradise filled with alcohol.
"Don't make a noise, a little too loud!!!"
"Don't you know even the walls can hear...?" She whisper-yelled to herself.
And yet here,
I was watching it all...
Standing alone on the table.
I'm just a wine glass at the bar.
You'll tell me all your scars,
The bruises, the unspoken aspects,
I can see it all.
I can hear it all.

"She hates me! I have lost her!" He cried as his words fumbled
"It's okay buddy! You'll get better"
The words which still make him wonder,
Suffering seems to have no bound...
So he came here to release it all.
The hospital for his wounded soul,
"Don't make a noise, a little too loud!!!"
"Don't you know even the walls can hear...?" His friend tried to take him away.
And yet here,
I was watching it all...
Standing alone on the table.
I'm just a wine glass at the bar.
You'll tell me all your scars,
The bruises, the unspoken aspects,
I can see it all.
I can hear it all.
Until the time you break me...
