Lyrics
Well she wasn’t so glad to be sure
To be broken and cast on the floor
In the wretched unwinding of glass
It all seemed to happen so fast
Fallen beside her
The blackened, burnt feathers that drift to the ground
The tearing inside her
As the shards of the window behind her rain down
They cut through her eyes
They cut through her mind
They cut through the lies of the life
That she knows she’s leaving behind
Footsteps come running
And faces collect by the door
Stare in shock
But they know that they’ve seen this before
Run for help but they know it’s too late
For the woman collapsed on the floor
Too shattered to save
But the burning black raven
Like the phoenix shall rise from the grave
To be broken and cast on the floor
In the wretched unwinding of glass
It all seemed to happen so fast
Fallen beside her
The blackened, burnt feathers that drift to the ground
The tearing inside her
As the shards of the window behind her rain down
They cut through her eyes
They cut through her mind
They cut through the lies of the life
That she knows she’s leaving behind
Footsteps come running
And faces collect by the door
Stare in shock
But they know that they’ve seen this before
Run for help but they know it’s too late
For the woman collapsed on the floor
Too shattered to save
But the burning black raven
Like the phoenix shall rise from the grave
