Shattered Glass Heart

[Verse]
I tried to hold my dreams like feathers in my hand
But they slipped like water through this broken strand
Each smile I fake feels heavier than air
I'm drowning in a sea that doesn't care
[Verse 2]
Mirror's reflection whispering my shame
A thousand cracks all screaming out my name
Want to love the girl staring back at me
But her lonely eyes won't let her be free
[Chorus]
Can someone catch me before I fall too deep
I'm screaming silence while the shadows creep
All I wanted was a love so kind and steady
But I'm stuck with a heart that's never ready
[Verse 3]
I place my trust where it shatters every time
Tracing scars like poetry that doesn't rhyme
Reach for the sky but the clouds turn gray
Even sunrise is afraid to start my day
[Bridge]
The world feels colder when you're out of spark
Loneliness wraps me in its endless dark
I need a hand to pull me from this storm
Someone to remind me what it means to feel warm
[Chorus]
Can someone catch me before I fall too deep
I'm screaming silence while the shadows creep
All I wanted was a love so kind and steady
But I'm stuck with a heart that's never ready
