Dancing on Broken Glass lyrics

This place, a palace of light drawn with shade

Of silence and pretence, a token of our trade

And here, you and I lie wreathed in flames

All over a life lived by making up new games

Of gazes and whispers

[Chorus:]

I want you to know I still love you

Even though we’ve been dancing on broken glass,

Parade all your memories, for the moments we shared

Never fade away

I want you to know I still love you

When I walk down the memory lane

Where the night swears its love to the stars

There will be no more tears today, hey hey

We shared a penchant for cyanide praise

Fashioned our armours of empathy’s malaise

And all of that hurt, and all of those words that we said

You’d think we poisoned the ground on which we tread

But the lining is silver

[Chorus]

The best of intentions will not see the road paved

The end of illusions, who could ever be saved

What’s left behind in the storms that we braved

The troubles we find and the chances we waived

We’re going where dreams really come true

And we won’t be held back by our fears

Come hell or high water

We’ll trust there’s a life for us here this way

[Chorus]
