Broken Glass lyrics

Ever since I could understand
My mother said to me
"Don t you ever let a man hit you,
Don t you grow up like me"
So I swore I d never be like her
Or my grandmother too
Ever if it meant I d be alone
Ever if it meant I d be alone.

Cause she looked
Cause she looked like broken glass
When she fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When she started coming round
But she couldn t make him stop
And she wouldn t let it go
So everytime she got back up
Like broken glass went tumblin down
Tumblin down

First time that I saw your face
You looked so lost and kind
Should have recognized that
Troubled look
From the road I left behind
But I thought that I could comfort you
Or was it you could comfort me,
Never saw your anger till you blew
Never saw your anger till you blew

And I feel
Oh I d feel like broken glass
When I fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When I started coming round
But I couldn t make you stop
And you wouldn t let it go
So everytime I got back up
Like broken glass went tumbling down...

The slightest thing could spark you
There was always hell to pay
I could feel your darkness in me
And I knew just what to say
And the rest I can t remember
But it sounded like a gun
But it could have been a firecracker
It could have been a firecracker
Made me run

And you looked
Oh you looked like broken glass
When you fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When you started coming round
But I couldn t make you stop
And you wouldn t let it go
So this time when you got back up
Like broken glass you went
Just like broken glass
Just like broken glass...
...Tumbling down, tumbling down...
