Light bleeds through
Breaking the calm
People come to see the view
With their plaster
and tape
Closing these cracks
Not to fix them
To cover them up
To hide the broken
Using their empty promises
"It won't happen again"
"It was an accident"
They're as clear as glass
Only lies hide inside
So they cover up the truth
The pain of who they hurt
The broken souls
Who shattered like mirrors
Against angry fists
Cracks covering the outside
They run deeper than the eye can see
Until the soul has broken completely
Can they see how much damage
They really did do
