You speak in shards of broken glass

You punish me to try to take away my dignity
Strip away my confidence to prey upon the kindness that’s in me

So now I will withstand
Drive a nail into my hand
Crucified to ruthless circumstance
Too blind to understand
That you alone will suffer the consequence

You speak in shards of broken glass
My wounds may bleed, but the pain won’t last

Now I watch as you
Collapse
My suffering will mend
Your bitterness won’t end

So now I withstand
Drive a nail into my hand
Bleeding out, but I still will not relent
Too blind to understand
In the end, you will repent

You speak in shards of broken glass
Broken glass
My wounds may bleed, but the pain won’t last
The pain won’t last

Now I watch as you
Collapse
