Lyrics:
Broken glass on the table
Pick it up, hold it to your throat
I can see who you are now
That the windows broke

Drop of blood on the carpet
Didn't think it would go this far
Don't know why I held on this long
But here we are

I know you've been hurt
But you did it first to me

We started with the end
Broken glass again

Maybe it doesn't matter
Who the blame gets assigned to next
Nothing's ever the way that I remember it

You know I've been hurt
Did I do it worse to you?

We started with the end
Broken glass

Again Again

I want you now
And then I don't
And every word is a land mine
I hold the glass
Against your throat
But I can't do it this time
It might seem like I love you
But I just don't want to be alone

We started with the end
Broken glass again
We're coming to the end
Breaking glass

    WTH LIZZY, the bridge gives me chill down my spine "I want you now and then I don't and every word is a landmine I hold the glass against your throat but I can't do it this time" BEST song on the album
  • @PROD5VE
    i will work on a song with Lizzy McAlpine one day, speaking it into existence 🙏🏼
  • @bayresa6648
    This is definitely one of my favorite songs from the album!!! The prechorus especially with that first key change with “I know” at 0:39 and “you know” at 1:32 is haunting but also reflects the hurt the two in the lyrics are causing each other, even though they know it’s wrong they can’t erase the hurt that’s came with the original cut or hurt. They love each other but they also know it hurts to be together, but as Lizzy says in one of the last lines “I just don’t want to be alone”.. which is so real. Maybe it hits so hard because I’ve been in a relationship like this. You both keep hurting the other but you love each other, but neither wants to leave and be alone again

    "It might seem like I love you, but I just don't want to be alone" bro I really feel that :(

    I didn't even notice is was different songs. Just feels like one long song.
  • @catlover4915
    This song reminds me of the abusive relationship I got out of last year. "It might seem like I love you, but I just don't want to be alone" was the constant feeling on both ends of the relationship
  • @WinkAndaBlink
    Sounds like the intro song for 007 opening credits
