Glass Tires

Lyrics written Oct. 28th, 2022

Well I never want to kill

But this fragile lack of will

I’m too open of a wound

Too intense in my own tune

Looking for someone has made me sore

Guess I’m better as a one-shot w***e

Well the red stains

On my white dress

They seep and spread

Till I can’t assess

If it’s self-made

Some did nothing

Nothing 

Nothing

So now I’ve pushed them all away

But they’re leaving anyways

From glass tires, glass tires (*2)

Well I spit on ignorance

On the mob’s cold one-track dance

But here I bleed from pin-prick taps

Longing for a child’s trance

It’s so easy to break my flower

While I sleep through the eleventh hour

Chorus *1

To the mob

I flaunt my green grit-faced scarecrow

And go home

Fall into the pink, plush back row

I miss the child, the life of mild

To reconcile with the wild

Conflict fires, tangled hot wires

Though they hurt me, though they burned me

They never broke the tires

Never broke the tires

Never broke the tires

Chorus *2

(Some did) Nothing

Nothing

Nothing 

(I've done) Nothing

Nothing

Nothing

Glass tires (*5)

Author's Note

It would be so much easier just to write "I'm sensitive as shit" and call it a day with this song
