Lyrics
0:095 years old
0:11First contact
0:12Never too young to make a contract
0:16My blueprints
0:18Supposed to last
0:20I don't remember the walls made of glass
0:26Learned to protect myself with a facade
0:32Hide what I want
0:34Easier said than done with a mask on
0:39I can't take off
0:41I've got a secret but
0:43I can't afford for you to hear it
0:45I've built a habit but
0:46I haven't got the heart to break it
0:49Yeah you're putting
0:50All my common sense in past tense
0:53I've got thick skin but
0:54It's all porcelain and shattering
0:57Shattering
1:01Shattering
1:05Shattering
1:06Crowd of three and I'm the one left out
1:10And that was feeding this version of me now
1:14I was folding like paper-mache
1:18Just an ember catching into flames
1:23Learned to protect myself
1:27All my defense is counterfeit
1:31Harder to see the truth
1:35My confidence is almost spent
1:39I've got a secret but
1:40I can't afford for you to hear it
1:43I've built a habit but
1:44I haven't got the heart to break it
1:46Yeah you're putting all my common sense in past tense
1:51I've got thick skin but
1:52It's all porcelain and shattering
1:55Shattering
1:59Shattering
2:02Shattering
2:11Look don't touch
2:13It's hard enough
2:14When you got a lot to lose
2:19Call my bluff when I'm too tough
2:22I need you to cut me loose from the prison I'm in
2:28In my own mind
2:33Yeah you carry me through when I'm too tired
2:42I've got a secret
2:43But I can't afford for you to hear it
2:46I've built a habit
2:47But I haven't got the heart to break it
2:50Yeah you're putting
2:51All my common sense in past tense
2:54I've got thick skin but
2:55It's all porcelain and shattering
2:58Shattering
3:02Shattering
3:05Shattering
3:10Shattering
