Did you think my heart was stronger than that

That it was made out of rubber 

And could always bounce back

Did it come as a shock 

When you saw the it was glass

So fragile yet I still left it unlocked 

 

Did you see when it shattered on the ground 

Did you see me on my hands and knees

Trying to salvage what's left to be found

You can't sew glass together 

Glue won't make it new 

Tape can't always make things better 

 

I could melt it down 

Fashion something new out of old 

And never again let my heart hit the ground

Hide it away and bury it deep 

Keep it hidden under lock and key 

My perfect, beautiful, new heart

That no one will ever see

Sometimes people assume that you are stronger than you actually are.
