Shattered Glass
“Cleaning up my past”
“Shattered Glass”
Memories floating in my head,
so as shattered glass
Voices echo from my past,
singing in my ears like shattered glass
Thinking about the past,
but all I see is shattered glass
Being with you and being with them,
swimming through shattered glass
Trying to clean up my past,
been sweeping up this shattered glass
With you I can get through this,
stepping through my shattered past
