From the recording A Need to Feel Dangerous
Lyrics by Jessica Smith
Lyrics
Not much left of yesterday
As each day passes, memory fades
You told me you would never go
Oh, why'd you have to go?
Everything's black and white
Silent movie, sad reality
I just want back the joy you brought to me
We were blue skies and evergreens
You were home to me
I try to stay strong
But it never lasts
Since you've been gone, what's left of me
Is made of glass
That shatters into pieces
At the sound of your name
Over time I've collected the pieces
With hope of creating something new
I hold my masterpiece toward the light
An image of you comes into view
All the bits and pieces of the color
You've left behind
Broken pieces mended back together still shine
Like stained glass
Cathedral of our past
I could break down everything that went wrong
I could rebuild my heart and make it strong
I could write you a song for you to sing
All the pieces left of me
Oh what beauty can be found
In being broken
You just have to reach the light
Over time I've collected the pieces
With hope of creating something new
I hold my masterpiece toward the light
An image of you comes into view
All the bits and pieces of the color
You've left behind
Broken pieces mended back together still shine
Like stained glass
Cathedral of our past
Broken pieces mended back together still shine
Like stained glass
Broken pieces mended back together still shine
