“Glass Body”
I feel over my glass body
Everyday
Looking for the cracks
I'm sure will show again one day
Don't get too close to people
What if they try to crack me
I run my hand over the last crack
Like the last time
I open up and people are nice for a while
But then they turn
They lash out at me
And their words leave cracks
Broken and afraid
I stay away
It happens again and again
And my glass body is far too cracked
It can't be helped if I have to stick alone
It's the way I must live
