lyrics

Vines grow long
Thorns grow sharp
Glass flowers cut
And leave a mark
Trip and tear
Rip and burn
You poisoned us
Now it's your turn

We are shattered mirrors
Fragments of the truth
Bitter bits of broken glass
Begging for some proof
And in this fun house all the mirrors crash into the floor
We don't want to catch the light of liars anymore

Can we have the cure now
The poison runs so deep
And these shards of broken glass
Will cut you in your sleep

Try to tame this glassy garden
Force us to your plan
Just beware of your time there
We'll cut you if we can
And spill your blood on roots grown weak
And hungry for the rain
And these shattered flowers
Will feed upon your pain

Can we have the cure now
The poison runs so deep
And these shards of broken glass
Will cut you in your sleep

Vines grow long
Thorns grow sharp
Glass flowers cut
And leave a mark
Trip and tear
Rip and burn
You poisoned us
Now it's your turn

How I miss the sunlight
How I miss the rain
How I miss the fertile Earth
Come to life again
Overthrow the darkness
That spreads across our land
Cut the poison, make it bleed
Destroy it if you can

Can we have the cure now
The poison runs so deep
And these shards of broken glass
Will cut you in your sleep

Vines grow long
Thorns grow sharp
Glass flowers cut
And leave a mark
Trip and tear
Rip and burn
You poisoned us
Now it's your turn
