Through The Glass

[intro]

lying in bed, staring at the fan

spinning in circles, just like my mind

the space beside me colder than it should be

i reach for you, but there’s no hand to find

[verse 1]

pick up the pillow, pull it to my chest

still smells like you, still haunts like death

close my eyes, and the room starts shifting

falling backwards into what’s left

[chorus 1]

through the glass, through the rain

through the echoes screaming your name

blurred reflection, broken past

i reach for you, but it shatters so fast

it shatters so fast

i still feel you through the glass

[verse 2]

tv flickers, static gold

we were rollerblading down roads of lightning and smoke

monuments glowing, wheels on fire

laughing like gods, like love couldn’t expire

[verse 3]

shower’s running, water burns my skin

close my eyes, and i’m drowning again

we were dancing in a summer storm

soaked and breathless, safe and warm

[pre-chorus]

and i swore i’d forget, but the body remembers

every whisper, every winter

every night your voice was home

now it’s silence carved in stone

[chorus 2]

through the glass, through the rain

through the echoes screaming your name

blurred reflection, broken past

i reach for you, but it shatters so fast

it shatters so fast

i still feel you through the glass

[bridge]

cherry blossoms falling, dust on the tray

photographs frozen in yesterday

your voice on speaker, taylor swift loud

we danced like fools, like gods, like vows

hands on the closet, picking out shirts

laughed at the fit, kissed through the hurt

every second, every scene

trapped between what was and what’s unseen

[breakdown]

i see us still, framed in the light

two silhouettes fading at sunrise

footsteps soft, the door creaks wide

did you know that was the last time?

i count the echoes, one by one

trace the shadows where we’d run

you are here, and you are gone

and i’ve been lost for far too long

[verse 4]

streetlights flicker, the city turns blue

the crosswalk still remembers you

window reflections, strangers’ eyes

for a second, i swear it’s mine

[verse 5]

fingertips ghosting over the bed

sheets still twisted like the way you left

half-drunk soda by the nightstand

your shirt still smells like sweat

[bridge 2]

maybe i was the ghost in your arms

maybe love was just keeping warm

maybe closure’s just a lie

that keeps us breathing through the night

every whisper, every touch

every time we swore too much

everything we left unsaid

still lingers like a cigarette

[chorus]

through the glass, through the rain

through the echoes screaming your name

blurred reflection, broken past

i reach for you, but it shatters so fast

through the glass, through the blur

every memory, every word

i still see you, in every light

but you’re gone before i hold you right

you fade so fast

i still feel you through the glass

[outro]

ceiling fan, spinning still

but ghosts don’t chase, and ghosts don’t feel

one last breath, one last glance

i don’t turn back

through the glass
