I walk along, my glass feet clunking But you long ago found you could drown out the sound Struggling to keep up, my glass lungs heaving But you long ago learned to be unconcerned Lapping up snatches of conversation, my glass lips laughing But you long ago grew bored of the girl who is now ignored Lagging behind, my glass legs tired and aching But you long ago blocked out my desperate shout Screaming in frustration, my glass throat cracking But you long ago stopped seeing my clear, colourless being Sobbing and lonely, my glass soul shatters And you turn And you remember How pretty I look when I'm broken

Glass Girl
I walk along, my glass feet clunking But you long ago found you could drown out the sound Struggling to keep up, my glass lungs heaving But you long ago learned to be unconcerned Lapping up snatches of conversation, my glass lips laughing But you long ago grew bored of the girl who is now ignored Lagging behind, my glass legs tired and aching But you long ago blocked out my desperate shout Screaming in frustration, my glass throat cracking But you long ago stopped seeing my clear, colourless being Sobbing and lonely, my glass soul shatters And you turn And you remember How pretty I look when I'm broken
