Glass Water

Verse 1

Counting out the change I found inside the drawer

Six dollars for the morning light

Wet pavement smells like iron on the breeze

The ceiling fan spins a jagged line

Tracing circles where I used to sleep

Pre-Chorus

If I move too fast the walls start closing in

Maybe it is just the way the seasons bend

Shadows stretching tall across the empty floor

Wishing you would walk back through the door

Chorus

Take what you need and leave the rest (Leave it all)

Burn the maps and settle for the best (Settle down)

Hold my breath until the water turns to glass

Watching every single second pass

(Waiting for the glass to break)

(Watching it all pass)

Verse 2

Plastic flowers gathered in a broken glass

Still bright against the faded white

Cold tea sits bitter on the bedside stand

Tapping rhythms with my shaking hand

Wait for someone else to understand

Pre-Chorus

If I move too fast the walls start closing in

Maybe it is just the way the seasons bend

Shadows stretching tall across the empty floor

Wishing you would walk back through the door

Chorus

Take what you need and leave the rest (Leave it all)

Burn the maps and settle for the best (Settle down)

Hold my breath until the water turns to glass

Watching every single second pass

(Waiting for the glass to break)

(Watching it all pass)

Bridge

Weightless for a moment in the air

I look for something that was never there

Fragile like a wing about to fold

Afraid of everything we couldn't hold

Trying not to let the truth take hold

Chorus

Take what you need and leave the rest (Leave it all)

Burn the maps and settle for the best (Settle down)

Hold my breath until the water turns to glass

Watching every single second pass

(Waiting for the glass to break)

(Watching it all pass)
