Fucked Up – Glass Boys lyrics

When glass turns to stone
The shine turns to coal
When fast becomes slow
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?
