SHARDS

from DEMO by Placid Joy

	/

lyrics

I wake up by the first sunray
That colors the room in dullest grey
Reflecting shards of broken words
Don’t know how to move without getting hurt
Rip out my tongue, and throw it away
No need to talk when there’s nothing left to say
I’m better off with the taste of blood in my mouth
Sweet taste is gone and worn out

We’re drifting apart...
Well I don’t know how to start
We’re drifting apart...
And I’m just picking up shards

We’re two leaves on a stormy day
Dancing in circles we’re acting out our play
We tried to touch but we’re so far out of reach
We rot away and there’ll be nothing left to keep

We’re drifting apart and I’m just picking up shards

We’re drifting apart...
Well I don’t know how to start
We’re drifting apart...
And I’m just picking up shards
I keep picking up shards
