Jennifer Grassman Glass Lyrics

How like glass my heart is shattered
Broken pieces on my floor,
Memories of love are tainted
Despair opens wide his door,
Calling me, "Child, I'll embrace you
Like your father never could,
I will hold you fast forever
Like your father never would."

Looking back I see the traces
Of the cold undercurrent
Living lies to hide the cruelty
All the years of fear I spent
Wondering if I was alone
In this sea of agony,
Thinking maybe I was crazy,
Wishing that I wasn't me.

Only now I cross the border Leaving Wonderland behind,
But the shadow still hangs over
As the twisted lies unwind,
Memories I reinterpret
Reading hate into the smiles,
Reading lies into promises
As his lust my trust defiles.

Here witness my bitter anguish
My heart poured out like red wine
All the tears and fears and anger
Betrayal words can't define
Bruised and lied to, pushed to hatred
Now the hatred melts away
All I'm left with is a dream of
What life should have been today.
