It's not a solid, not a soft thing
To pull the wool up like a smokescreen
Nobody does it like a prophet
It's gone before you know you've lost it
There are reasons you keep your hands tied
There's certain things you shouldn't have tried
So if you gotta tell me something
You better go from the beginning
We all forget to sleep
And crash at someone's feet
We all forget to sleep
Everybody skips a beat
We hate the chance to pass
The fear we held so fast
Everybody breaks the glass
And here I'm standing in the middle
Not just a little but a hilltop
Wondering how I got a head cold
Wishing I didn't know what I'm not
It's never been about the money
We're worthy of you're not worthy
However much you got on your plate
You're as good as you reciprocate
We all pretend to keep
Our tongue out of our cheek
Everyone's the fool they seek
We all go off the track
And feel for our way back
Everybody breaks the glass
Everybody breaks the glass
Everybody breaks the glass
Everybody breaks the glass
Shucks, scared of luck
Appears when they peer back
It's weird how we fear that
It's weird how we wear masks
It appears that we fear our own tears
More than tear gas
My team struggle in the years past
Lookin' to draft beer to bring cheers back
But then the drinking game's finished, no Guinness, just a clear glass
Seein' our real image mirror back
The places that we go to cope is so strange
When we're older folks that don't change
Tryin' to hang, we don't know the ropes
When we fall, we get more than our shoulders broke
It's no game, that's why we overdose on cocaine
Get our brains comatose, it's no blame
If you've ever known shame, known pain
Known days when it really don't feel okay
Somewhere perfection lies
But not for you and I
Everybody trips at some times
When cities fall like shacks
Walls eventually crack
Everybody breaks the glass
But not for you and I
