Drawings On Glass

Through the steam I hide my face
Tracing lines I can't erase
Every thought I try to show
Disappears before it grows

I feel the silence pulling tight
The weight of shadows steals the light
If I could break this fragile glass
The world would see my soul at last

I can't hold on behind this mask
I'm terrified of who will ask

Drawings on glass, they vanish in my hands
The truth inside I don't let them understand
I want to scream but I'm afraid to speak
The lines I draw are gone before they're seen

Every dream I've tried to write
Melts away and leaves no sign
I lock my colors in the dark
They fade before they leave a mark

I've been living half a song
Hiding words I've held too long
If I don't let these visions breathe
They'll disappear inside of me

I can't pretend I'm not afraid
Of all the things I've left unmade

Drawings on glass, they vanish in my hands
The truth inside I don't let them understand
I want to scream but I'm afraid to speak
The lines I draw are gone before they're seen

I've been carving my soul in silence
Hiding colors the world won't see
If the glass could hold what I'm feeling
It would shatter the weight inside me

Drawings on glass, they vanish in my hands
But I won't let my voice keep slipping like sand
Drawings on glass, no longer I'll hide
I'll show the whole world what I hold inside

Drawings on Glass, they vanish too fast
Drawings on Glass, I'm breaking at last
I won't fade away like Drawings on Glass
