I should have known It would be you To melt the ice within me Clear away the grime And throw open the shutters to the world And as soon as I could finally Feel the warm, fluid motion of my it See me when I looked into it And give freely of it to everyone You froze it again You threw it in the dirt and created even more grime And bolted the shutters closed And as if that wasn't enough You've hit it so many times With your words Your ideas Your thoughts And you've left it Cracked

Cracked
I should have known It would be you To melt the ice within me Clear away the grime And throw open the shutters to the world And as soon as I could finally Feel the warm, fluid motion of my it See me when I looked into it And give freely of it to everyone You froze it again You threw it in the dirt and created even more grime And bolted the shutters closed And as if that wasn't enough You've hit it so many times With your words Your ideas Your thoughts And you've left it Cracked
