Glass in My Throat ! Nu Metal /Rock !

Описание: Thin keys in an empty room
Hands shake on the first note
Breath caught in a cracked lung
Hope stuck in a tight throat

[Verse 1]
I’ve been chewing on my secrets
Grinding teeth until they bleed
Every smile a crooked story
Every promise missing pieces I need

Stare at the ceiling like it’s talking
It keeps spelling out my faults
All these trophies made of plastic
All these blessings made of salt

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, do you ever feel it
That split right down your chest
Half of you’s a quiet savior
Half just wants to burn the rest

I’m slipping in the spaces
Between the lies I wrote
If I scream, will you believe me
When the truth cuts at my—

[Chorus]
Glass in my throat
Every word that I swallow keeps tearing me open
I’m coming apart
But I still keep pretending I’m perfectly broken
I’m not alright
But I wear this smile like a borrowed coat
Say I’m okay
Till the blood runs red from the glass in my throat (hey)

[Verse 2]
Yeah, I’m that cracked frame, hung straight for the guests
Hide the river in my veins, call the flood “just stress”
Laugh it off, “I’m fine,” like a reflex twitch
But the floor keeps shaking when the doubts all hit

Every mirror shows a stranger
Eyes dull, but they glare back sharp
I keep sanding down my edges
Still I cut right through my heart

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, do you ever fake it
Just to make it through the day
Trade your truth for quiet nodding
Till you can’t recall your name

I’m choking on the silence
On every “sorry” that I wrote
If I let it out in pieces
Will you listen while I—

[Chorus]
Glass in my throat
Every word that I swallow keeps tearing me open
I’m coming apart
But I still keep pretending I’m perfectly broken
I’m not alright
But I wear this smile like a borrowed coat
Say I’m okay
Till the blood runs red from the glass in my throat

[Bridge]
I don’t want to be this battle
Fought against myself each night
I don’t want to be this echo
Fading just outside the light

So take these jagged letters
Every sharp and shaking note
If I bleed it on the pavement
Will it wash away the—

[Chorus]
Glass in my throat
Every word that I swallow keeps tearing me open
I’m coming apart
But I won’t keep pretending I’m perfectly broken
I’m not alright
And I’m done with hiding beneath this coat
Hear me tonight
Every raw, rough sound from the glass in my throat

[Outro]
[Guitar outro swells, then slowly detunes into quiet]
One last chord in an empty room
Hands still on the same note
Breath soft in a tired lung
Scars where there once was glass in my throat
