Porcelain
Five years old, first contact
Never too young to make a contract
My blueprints supposed to last
I don't remember the walls made of glass
Learned to protect myself
With a facade, hide what I want
Easier said than done
With a mask on, I can't take off
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it
I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering
Shattering
Shattering
Crowd of three and I'm the one left out
And that was feeding this version of me now
I was folding like paper-mache
Just an ember catching into flames
Learned to protect myself
All my defense is counterfeit
Harder to see the truth
My confidence is almost spent
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it
I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering
Shattering
Shattering
Look, don't touch, it's hard enough
When you got a lot to lose
Call my bluff when I'm too tough
I need you to cut me loose
From the prison I'm in, in my own mind
Yeah, you carry me through when I'm too tired
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it
I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering
Shattering
Oh, shattering
Never too young to make a contract
My blueprints supposed to last
I don't remember the walls made of glass
Learned to protect myself
With a facade, hide what I want
Easier said than done
With a mask on, I can't take off
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it
I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering
Shattering
Shattering
Crowd of three and I'm the one left out
And that was feeding this version of me now
I was folding like paper-mache
Just an ember catching into flames
Learned to protect myself
All my defense is counterfeit
Harder to see the truth
My confidence is almost spent
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it
I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering
Shattering
Shattering
Look, don't touch, it's hard enough
When you got a lot to lose

I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it
I've built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering
Shattering
Oh, shattering
