Scattered Songtext
von Astrid Williamson

I wish I was braver
But I wish you were kind
′Cause you've been silent for weeks
No word, no sign
Well I guess I can′t hate it
Or I'd set myself free
I must need control
Like the feather on the breeze

When your heart shatters
And scatters like glass
It gets spread 'round the future
As much as the past
So you′d better tread lightly
Find your way through
Before you get stuck
And you can′t even move

I wish I was braver


And I wish I was wise
But my heart still turns over
When I look in your eyes
Well there's nowhere to hide
There′s nothing to say
But there's no point pretending
I could be some other way

Can′t help these feelings
It's my fault I stay
But I can′t take the healing
If it takes you away
I should learn how to let you go

But I know that I won't
So I'm damned if I do
And I′m damned if I don′t

But when your heart shatters
And scatters like glass
It gets spread 'round the future
As well as the past
So you′d better tread lightly
Find your way through
Don't cling to the old
Better find something new


Well maybe love′s knowing
When to let go
Or maybe it's just learning
What not to show
Well I rise every morning
Swear I′ll change soon
Like the tide rises daily
Saying today I'm gonna touch the moon

Well I wish I could tell you
That all that I wanted
Was a place in your heart
Though I know it's still haunted
By ghosts and illusions
Spectral reminders
But she don′t exist babe
That′s why you can't find her

But when your heart shatters
And scatters like glass
It gets spread ′round the future
As well as the past
So you'd better tread lightly
Find your way through
Don′t cling to the old
Better find something new
