When glass turns to stone
The shine turns to coal
When fast becomes slow
Glass boy
I was the source
Now I'm the decay
Just fading away
Glass boy
If you touch me, I'll shatter
Like a statue, I'm fragile
Just a whisper
you could hear me if I mattered
I was wild like a wave
Now I'm fixed into place
On the sand ans I'm scared of the tide
Where did I used to go before I went nowhere?
What did I used to do before I did nothing?
What did I used to have before I had nothing?
Who did i used to be before I was no one?
Pretend the kids are strange
But it was me who has changed
I wish I could go back
Glass boy
I'm afraid to grow up
And fuck my life up
So I sit and just turn to
Glass boy
I wore out my grooves, I'm just a faded tune
Not an echo boom, but just a whimper
I spun for too long and now my sound is gone
You couldn't play me if you wanted
Where did I used to go before I went nowhere?
What did I used to do before I did nothing?
What did I used to have before I had nothing?
Who did i used to be before I was no one?
The sand fills the glass
With all the hours in the past
In the air now, for someone to get back
A million little stones
Put to fire, put to sound
Make the man you see and the one you will become
There's a tunnel at the end
of the light where you will find me
There's a darkness at the end
of the night that conceals me
I'm a glass boy, I'm a glass boy
I'm so scared boy, but I'm ready
So replace me, just erase me
Let me sit here
And shine
Where did I used to go before I went nowhere?
What did I used to do before I did nothing?
What did I used to have before I had nothing?
Who did i used to be before I was no one?
