Shatters Within Lyrics

Once I was there

Standing outside

Looking in

Beside my window

Smiling face, shattering

It's an old man's pride

That climbs over understanding

It wasn't your child

That I was hurting

(pre-chorus)

And I turn my back to the world

Well I don't care

What can I say if I see you all as dead

(chorus)

Under the dying sun it comes

Weaving fear but I have none

I know that mushroom cloud

Won't come very near

What do you have to believe in

And all the poison you breathe in

The crystal heart shatters within

Once I was there

Standing outside

Moving in

Inside my window

Crying face, shattering

Take all that you have

And leave the rest now for today

It's the old folk's sign

That took away for chastity 

(pre-chorus)

(chorus)
