Glass Songtext
von Cracked Capo

I know exactly what I did
I watched myself do it
From somewhere above
Like a man who reads the weather
And still walks out without a coat
I have a gift for the afterwards
The apology that lands just right
The softness that arrives on schedule
Like it was waiting
In the wings all night

And I am sorry God, I′m sorry
But sorry is a room I've lived in
Long enough to know the walls
I rearrange the furniture
I light a candle, make some calls
But the door is always open
And I always find the hole


My mother had a word for people like me
She used it quietly, not at me, at him
I heard it through the walls at seven
Filed it somewhere I forgot to check
There′s a version of this I could fix
I've been told that I believe it sometimes
Usually in the morning before anything
Has had the chance to prove me wrong again

And I am sorry God, I'm sorry
But sorry is a room I′ve lived in
Long enough to know the walls
I rearrange the furniture
I light a candle, make some calls
But the door is always open
And I always find the hole

I don′t want to be this I want that on record
Somewhere permanent Where it counts

But wanting is the easy part
I've always been good at wanting
It′s the afterwards that gets me
The glass I didn't mean to break
The way I looked at it and left
And I am sorry And I am sorry

The door is always open
And I always find the hole
