Cyndi Lauper - Broken Glass Lyrics






Ever since I could understand
My mother said to me
"Don't you ever let a man hit you,
Don't you grow up like me"
So I swore I'd never be like her
Or my grandmother too
Ever if it meant I'd be alone
Ever if it meant I'd be alone.

'Cause she looked
'Cause she looked like broken glass
When she fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When she started coming 'round
But she couldn't make him stop
And she wouldn't let it go
So everytime she got back up
Like broken glass went tumblin' down
Tumblin' down

First time that I saw your face
You looked so lost and kind
Should have recognized that
Troubled look
From the road I left behind
But I thought that I could comfort you
Or was it you could comfort me,
Never saw your anger 'till you blew
Never saw your anger 'till you blew

And I feel
Oh I'd feel like broken glass
When I fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When I started coming 'round
But I couldn't make you stop
And you wouldn't let it go
So everytime I got back up
Like broken glass went tumbling down...

The slightest thing could spark you
There was always hell to pay
I could feel your darkness in me
And I knew just what to say
And the rest I can't remember
But it sounded like a gun
But it could have been a firecracker
It could have been a firecracker
Made me run

And you looked
Oh you looked like broken glass
When you fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When you started coming 'round
But I couldn't make you stop
And you wouldn't let it go
So this time when you got back up
Like broken glass you went
Just like broken glass
Just like broken glass...
...Tumbling down, tumbling down...

    Amazing!! It's rare to hear Hat Full of Stars songs sung live! One of my favs from that record/album/CD!

  2. �.... ....

    バカで明るく笑わせる手法 
    「アタシのなにがわるいの?」
    「アタシなにかした?」
    無垢なフリ

    ウザ

  3. �.... ....

    もう喪って真実を知ることが出来ない人へ
    まだ喪ってはいないが真実を知ることが出来ない人へ

    わりとむごい 真実は

    自身が自覚していて共有しようとしていることは だいたいにおいてすれ違う

    認識が違う

    現実があまりにむごいから 憎しみで消えたくなる

    知るか 否か

    僕は知れ 生きて怒り続けろ 許すな 一秒でも許すな

    僕は 知ったところで なにも出来ず 憎しみ強すぎて

    目上がしてくだすった こんなもののために ありがたい それでじゅうぶん あとは知らない テキトーにムカツキすぎたら殺すか死ぬか どーでもいい 太陽の復讐はなされた あとは地球の復讐 知らない 宇宙まで怒ってる 地球史上初のこと 

    ザマ

  4. �.... ....

    Killer is Japan's 【全ての元凶】Type play. super stupid lady. Nes.

  5. �.... ....

    Memory child. Mother's saids. 貴重な母のひとこと 貴重な教育のひととき 人生で言うと一瞬のあの会話が 子の全てを形成する その貴重な一瞬 を極道(Nes)が侵しよくわからないことを母に言わせた。
    女は男より全てにおいて強いというのに 女は弱い生き物だから という地球滅ぼす教育 家に居なさいと。
    だが母親の意向とは天変地異のように完璧な精神に鍛えられた子は

    これもなぶり フ ザ ケ ている 子遊びによる親なぶり 両方 
    親は家に居ろというのにナゼか完璧な精神になり 役に立つしかない子に そしてNesに殺され
    こちらのお歌では このお母様はこの様な教育を するはずのない たぐいのお母様

    なにからなにまでなぶり
    「母親になるな」 と 聞いたことがある Nes said.

  6. �.... ....

    Real savage story I wanna tell you.

  7. �.... ....

    And 【Watcher】SOS. What come USA's Emperor came. ! He helped Japan. thanx so much.

    perfect but like a fragile Nes killed.

  9. �.... ....
