Glass

I sprang to a smashing sound

Landing on the freezing floor, eyes wide

I looked down on the sparkling ground

Glistening stars of minute size

Landing on the freezing floor, eyes wide

Brain numb after the violent sound

Glistening stars of minute size

It was so cold, I could no longer stand

Brain numb after the violent sound

I grabbed at my clothes from untidy pile

So cold, I could no longer stand

It was still dark, but people outside

I grabbed at my clothes from untidy pile

I looked down on the sparkling ground

It was still dark, but people outside

I sprang to a smashing sound

I sprang to a smashing sound

Landing on the freezing floor, eyes wide

I looked down on the sparkling ground

Glistening stars of minute size

Landing on the freezing floor, eyes wide

Outside, speaking with loud emotion

Glistening stars of minute size

Seeing her glistening body, my heart stuck

Landing on the freezing floor, eyes wide

My partner, love and devotion

Seeing her glistening body, my heart stuck

I ran down the steps, three at a time

Outside, speaking with loud emotion

I looked down on the sparkling ground

I ran down the steps, three at a time

I sprang to a smashing sound

I sprang to a smashing sound

Landing on the freezing floor, eyes wide

I looked down on the sparkling ground

Glistening stars of minute size

Landing on the freezing floor, eyes wide

                        Outside, my feet numbly crunching on glass

Glistening stars of minute size

My eyes stinging with the loss

                        Outside, my feet numbly crunching on glass

Her body was bleeding in glass

My eyes stinging with loss

She was gazing blank at my embrace

                        Outside, my feet numbly crunching on glass

I looked down on the sparkling ground

She was gazing blank at my embrace, dead

I sprang to a smashing sound
