"Shatter" lyrics

"Shatter"

Coming up for oxygen
The world's the same
But something's changing
You see it on the street again
Lighting up
The strangest faces

And it feels like that
Sweeter than the best you've ever had
And oh it takes me back
To being 16 dancing like you're under attack

I don't really care if it nearly kills me
I'd give you the world if you asked me to
I could break a glass just to watch it shatter
I'd do anything just to feel with you

Right
You Alright
Alright

I see it in your teeth again
There's a tightness when you're smiling
It creeps in through the backdoor when
You play pretend and break down crying

And it feels like that
Cause you're wishing you had something you never had
But now we're going back
To being 16 flying like you'll never collapse

I don't really care if it nearly kills me
I'd give you the world if you asked me to
I could break a glass just to watch it shatter
I'd do anything just to feel with you

I don't really care if it nearly kills me
Feel it in my fists like it's time to move
Quick give me a glass Imma watch it shatter
I'd do anything just to feel with you

You Right
You Alright
You

I know there's people everywhere with injustice on their lips
And there's this open wound bleeding between my hips
And I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't scared
I'm scared I'm scared I'm scared I'm scared
I'm scared

And I've got all this anger trapped so deep inside
That started burning the summer my heroes died
And I just wish that I could hear a new Bowie again
Again again again again
Again again again again again
Again again again again again again

I don't really care if it nearly kills me
I'd give you the world if you asked me to
I could break a glass just to watch it shatter
I'd do anything just to feel with you

I don't really care if it nearly kills me
I'd give you the world if you wanted to
I can feel it in my fists it's time to shatter
I'd do anything just to feel with
With you

I'd do anything just to feel
With you

I'd do anything just to feel
With you
