Glass Girl

[Verse 1] I was a glass girl Beautiful and see-through Everyone could look inside But no one thought to ask what I was going through I held the light so pretty Bent it into colors on the wall But nobody noticed When the cracks began to crawl [Pre-Chorus] I shattered quietly The way glass always does Not with a scream Just a sound too small to hear [Chorus] But I'm not glass anymore I'm something harder, something more I took the broken pieces And I built myself a door Not glass anymore Not something you can see through I'm opaque and I'm whole And I'm finally new [Verse 2] They liked me fragile They liked me thin They liked the version That needed them to win But I stopped being pretty In the way that meant be small Now I'm beautiful different Tall and full and unafraid to fall [Pre-Chorus] I rose from the quiet The way fire always does Not with permission Just heat that couldn't wait [Chorus] I'm not glass anymore I'm something harder, something more I took the broken pieces And I built myself a door Not glass anymore Not something you can see through I'm opaque and I'm whole And I'm finally new [Bridge] Every piece that fell Became part of the ground I stand on Every crack let in The version of me I needed all along [Final Chorus] I'm not glass anymore Watch what I become I was always more than beautiful I was always more than someone's sun Not glass anymore Not waiting to be whole I already am I already am [Outro] Not glass… Not glass anymore… I am the fire I am the floor I am everything I was before And more…
