(Verse 1)
The ceiling is reflecting the pale city light
Like a ceiling of glass shattering in the night
You’re drifting away to a place I can't reach
Leaving me wrecked on this cold, lonely beach
Your breathing is soft, completely at peace
While I'm praying for this heartache to cease
(Chorus)
Under glass skies, I’m watching you fade
Lost in the shadow of promises made
Sleep through the storm that is breaking my heart
Before the new morning tears us apart
Close your sweet eyes, let the world slip away
Under glass skies, there is nothing to say
(Verse 2)
A delicate fragment of what we once held
Is cutting my hands as the memories swell
You turn to the side, so quiet and still
Protected from winters that bring me a chill
It’s beautiful how you can sleep through the pain
While my entire world is dissolving in rain
(Chorus)
Under glass skies, I’m watching you fade
Lost in the shadow of promises made
Sleep through the storm that is breaking my heart
Before the new morning tears us apart
Close your sweet eyes, let the world slip away
Under glass skies, there is nothing to say
(Bridge)
One sharp, sudden breath and the illusion will break
I’m crying in silence for both of our sake
The atmosphere's heavy, the pressure is high
We’re trapped in the dark of a fracturing sky
(Chorus)
Yeah, under glass skies, I’m watching you fade
Lost in the shadow of promises made
Sleep through the storm that is breaking my heart
Before the new morning tears us apart
Close your sweet eyes, let the world slip away
Under glass skies, there is nothing to say
(Outro)
The glass starts to fall...
The dreams start to clear.
Just sleep, my love...
Before I disappear.
Under glass skies...
We shatter tonight.
