[Verse 1]
Blue glow on my skin
Half-read texts, unsent sins
Scrolling through a life I don’t claim
Every face a borrowed name
Cold tea on the nightstand
Heartbeat in a rubber band
Snap back, but it’s still the same
Silence louder than the shame
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep running from the mirror
But it’s stitched into my eyes
Every flaw a little clearer
Every truth another lie
[Chorus]
I got glass in my veins, feel it cutting through
Every beat, every breath, keeps me close to you
But you’re miles in my mind, you’re a ghost in the room
As I fade, as I fade into shades of you
Glass in my veins, and it’s shining blue
I don’t bleed, I just break when I think of you
[Verse 2 - Rap]
Yeah, late night, heavy like a wet coat
Wishing I could float, but I choke on the “stay strong” quotes
Friends say “breathe,” I been breathing in static
Patch up the cracks, then I crash, automatic
Left your hoodie on the chair like a shrine piece
Talk tough, but my spine weak, I can’t find peace
Missed calls, I let ’em ring till they die out
’Cause I’m scared of the sound when the line’s loud
Say “heal,” but the wound got a memory
Every laugh got a shadow, an enemy
I been dancing on the edge of a come-down
Writing your name in the fog till it runs out
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep running from the mirror
But it’s stitched into my eyes
Every flaw a little clearer
Every truth another lie
[Chorus]
I got glass in my veins, feel it cutting through
Every beat, every breath, keeps me close to you
But you’re miles in my mind, you’re a ghost in the room
As I fade, as I fade into shades of you
Glass in my veins, and it’s shining blue
I don’t bleed, I just break when I think of you
[Bridge]
Tell me, do you ever taste my name
In the back of your throat like rain
Do you ever wake up mid-dream
With my shadow pressed in between
’Cause I’m stuck in a loop in a closed drive
Rewinding the night we were both alive
Every “always” rotting into rust
Every promise powdered into dust (woah)
[Chorus]
I got glass in my veins, feel it cutting through
Every beat, every breath, keeps me close to you
But you’re miles in my mind, you’re a ghost in the room
As I fade, as I fade into shades of you
Glass in my veins, and it’s shining blue
I don’t bleed, I just break when I think of you
[Outro]
Blue glow, white noise
Same face, no voice
If I crack, if I cave
Will you feel the break in your waves?
