Glass Cathedral

You left a eclipse in my chest
I fake a calm and call it blessed
I keep your name in a glass cathedral
Touch it once and my hands turn needles

I hold the hope you left in letters
Turn every page like a slow surrender

Break me softly, I still bleed blue
Like ink in water, I will run to you
Hold my ruins, say they’re worth it too
I'm a shattered hymn that still sings you
I still sing you
I still sing you

Your promise slept like a blade under pillows
Sweet as a prayer, then it fell like a shadow
I talk to walls ’cause they repeat your laughter
I strike a match and it rains here after

I carry your silence like rented skin
If I tear it off, will the pain begin?

Break me softly, I still bleed blue
Like ink in water, I will run to you
Hold my ruins, say they’re worth it too
I'm a shattered hymn that still sings you

Tell me love, was I a tempest to tame
Or just a mirror to set your flame?
If healing needs a price to pay
Take my color, leave the name

Break me softly, I still bleed blue
If there’s a heaven, it looks like you
Hold my ruins, call them something new
Like ink in water, I will run to you
(I keep on falling, I fall to you)
I'm a shattered hymn, but I still sing you

I still sing you
