0:07Broken Glass - Cyndi Lauper
0:32Ever since I could understand
0:34My mother said to me
0:36"Don't you ever let a man hit you,
0:38Don't you grow up like me"
0:41So I swore I'd never be like her
0:46Or my grandmother too
0:47Ever if it meant I'd be alone
0:49Ever if it meant I'd be alone.
0:55'Cause she looked
0:56'Cause she looked like broken glass
0:59When she fell to the ground
1:01I heard the sound of thunder
1:02Trailing off
1:03When she started coming 'round
1:06But she couldn't make him stop
1:08And she wouldn't let it go
1:11So everytime she got back up
1:13Like broken glass went tumblin' down
1:16Tumblin' down
1:26First time that I saw your face
1:28You looked so lost and kind
1:31Should have recognized that
1:33Troubled look
1:33From the road I left behind
1:35But I thought that I could comfort you
1:38Or was it you could comfort me,
1:41Never saw your anger 'till you blew
1:43Never saw your anger 'till you blew
1:48And I feel
1:50Oh I'd feel like broken glass
1:53When I fell to the ground
1:56I heard the sound of thunder
1:58Trailing off
1:58When I started coming 'round
2:01But I couldn't make you stop
2:03And you wouldn't let it go
2:06So everytime I got back up
2:08Like broken glass went tumbling down...
2:34The slightest thing could spark you
2:36There was always hell to pay
2:39I could feel your darkness in me
2:41And I knew just what to say
2:43And the rest I can't remember
2:45But it sounded like a gun
2:48But it could have been a firecracker
2:51It could have been a firecracker
2:53Made me run
2:55And you looked
2:58Oh you looked like broken glass
3:01When you fell to the ground
3:03I heard the sound of thunder
3:05Trailing off
3:06When you started coming 'round
3:08But I couldn't make you stop
3:11And you wouldn't let it go
3:13So this time when you got back up
3:15Like broken glass you went
3:19Just like broken glass
3:24Just like broken glass...
3:53...Tumbling down, tumbling down...
