Sleeping At Last — Porcelain

Текст песни: Porcelain

Porcelain LyricsThe door broke when you slammed it shut
And the cracks kept reaching long after you left
Through the floorboards, branching towards the hall
Like vines that never rest...
Climbing like fire through the walls
A single spark that claims the whole forest -
I know, i know... it's all for the best
But honestly, i would rather be
Safe from a distance than here...

When i fell to my knees
To sew the damage shut
I couldn't believe...
A bright, staggering light
Came flooding into me
From out of the seams
So i reached deeper in
And pulled my whole world wide open
And for each broken mile, a billion
Miracles happen at once
In everything... in everything

But i'm safe from a distance, right here

Everything i love
Was made of porcelain
Ready to break
But the bright, staggering light
It anxiously waits inside
Like nesting dolls, the secret hides
And like every birth
It was a necessary pain...
I know, i know...
It's all worth the wait, worth the weight
