Transparent

lyrics

And all of the things that we said we could change, they sat in the corner and just stayed the same. While dust was collecting on your mirror frame, reflections are cloudy and it’s starting to rain. Confront me with bullshit, I’ll tell it to you straight. Come down like a pile of bricks, I’ll carry the weight. Transparent like glass I’ll be clear when I say, I’ll love you forever girl, just not today.
I’ve waited here for you, I’ve waited for a while. Pencil pushed through paper, photos, smokes and wine. Flying through the air now, no longer mine. Candlesticks and pieces dwindle as they die. Smiling never was easy after that, pacing ‘round the kitchen in our old flat. I’ve never been at home now, I’ve never been home since. Something crossed the bridge we built and burned it down, burned it down. Promises you can’t fulfil just get me down, get me down. I’m strung out and angry, I’m sorry but you made me aimless, afraid and lost; drawing circles in tears. I always said to you; losing you was one of my greatest fears. Waiting and waiting and patiently waiting, the fear you and I had, my mind was creating. If there’s a better way, I’m listening. Show me how.
I carried those bricks for you, I carried that weight. We promised each other that thing had to change. I cleaned up my act and I danced in the rain. Despite all of that it seems nothing has changed.
Through rose coloured glass I'll try my hardest to say I loved you forever girl but it's not the same.
Through rose coloured glass I'll try my hardest to say I loved you forever girl but it's not the same.
