Porcelain ⟦Live⟧

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Five years old, first contact Never too young to make a contract My blueprints supposed to last I don't remember the walls made of glass [Pre-Chorus] Learned to protect myself With a facade, hide what I want Easier said than done With a mask on, I can't take off [Chorus] I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering [Post-Chorus] Shattering Shattering [Verse 2] Crowd of three and I'm the one left out And that was feeding this version of me now I was folding like paper-mache Just an ember catching into flames [Pre-Chorus] Learned to protect myself All my defense is counterfeit Harder to see the truth My confidence is almost spent [Chorus] I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering [Post-Chorus] Shattering Shattering [Bridge] Look, don't touch, it's hard enough When you got a lot to lose Call my bluff when I'm too tough I need you to cut me loose From the prison I'm in, in my own mind Yeah, you carry me through when I'm too tired [Chorus] I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering [Post-Chorus] Shattering Shattering Oh, shattering
