I’m tired of dancing on broken glass,
Of living in loopholes,
Of reading between the lines,
Of calculating each word.
I’m tired of dancing on broken glass,
Of putting on a show,
Of each step pushing the glass a little deeper,
Of shredding myself for your entertainment.
I’m tired of dancing on broken glass.
