Porcelain Songtext
von Elin Ruth

You′re talking in my sleep
I get home when you leave
Our love is overcome
By gathering smithereens
And it's forcing us to
Take cover under porcelain shells
Someday they might crack in two
But until they do
We′ll hover over thorns and pretend
There's nothing to talk through

You take it high, bring it low
I've heard your stories
A hundred thousand million times before
My teardrops daze your mouth
But you keep talking ′til your voice is sore
And it′s forcing me to
Take cover under porcelain shields
Someday they might break in two
But until they do


You won't intend to ask how I feel
Or try to see me through

When did I get out of your sight?
Slip through your selfish eyes?
You think I′ve lost my charms
I'd say you′ve lost your mind
Yeah, it's forcing you to
Take cover under porcelain shells

Someday they might break in two
But until they do

I have nothing to offer except
What′s left of me and you

A cliché as we search
For trophies to make us feel better
Than we ever will be
So shame on me 'cause I can't
Keep my hands from that man
But that is more than I′ll ever tell you

′Cause I, I won't let you down
No, I stay by your side


One year later
And I thought I was changing
But here′s the same thing as ever before
You, you might leave my side

'Cause I, I will let you down
I will let you down
I will let you down
