ladal97414I drew the curtains, locked the door
Don't know who I'm hiding from anymore
Tracing patterns on the glass
Hoping that the feeling's passed
They say my house is made of stone
But I've never felt so overthrown
By the little sounds at night
Just beyond the pale moonlight
And there's a crack in the ceiling
It's a terrible feeling
To know that you can hear it all...
Before the fall...
Careful now, I'm made of porcelain
The monsters that I'm harboring
Are scratching up against the skin
And smiling with a wicked grin
So don't you get too close to me
The flaws are all you'll ever see
I'm beautiful until I break
It's such a delicate mistake
You tiptoe 'round my empty rooms
Sweeping up my quiet glooms
You think you've learned my secret song
But you've been playing it all wrong
You see the polish, see the shine
And dare to think you can be mine
But spiders weave their silk in here
And feed upon my silent fear
Careful now, I'm made of porcelain
The monsters that I'm harboring
Are scratching up against the skin
And smiling with a wicked grin
So don't you get too close to me
The flaws are all you'll ever see
I'm beautiful until I break
It's such a delicate mistake
...a delicate mistake...
...don't... break...
