lyrics

When I drive by all of our trashed castles- standing out in the street- I can feel my heart shatter pulsate- and reassemble to the beat-
……………….

Like when you were drumming- drum drum drum drum drumming- drumming next to me-Like

when you were drumming- drum drum drum drum drumming- drumming next to me**-
……………

I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in glass-

ouch- I always break them out

I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in glass-

ouch- I always break them out


Now I’m sitting in silence and I’m falling in love- I’m hoping you can find the sun in time to

warm up- I know there’s no colder heart than a heart untamed- and you were a spark of light in the mirror of my flame-
……………………………….

I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in *glass*-

ouch- I always break them out

I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in *glass*-

ouch- I always break them out-
……………………


His dreams were so close that they were starting to feel like ghosts-

you can taste them but you can’t touch them just like my last man and how I loved him-
(X3)
…………………………..


I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in glass-

ouch- I always break them out

I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in glass-

ouch- I always break them out-
………………………………………….

She’s hot n’ trashy like a maraschino cherry- She gets on like a gogo girl

she’s very very very- Very very hard to please(please please oh!)- Yeah she’s a pretty penny

gold class entertainer- So it’s really quite a chore to try and entertain her- *Oh they try to put

her in a blue glass container*- But she’s a zoo animal utterly unleashed!-
*Blue shards shatter all around her feet*-
……………………………………...

I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in *glass*-

ouch- I always break them out

I’m not afraid- I’m not afraid of the poison- but I’m afraid- I’m afraid of the boys in *glass*-

ouch- I always break them *out*-
