Stained Glass House

[Verse 1]
Ten seconds ago
I was looking in your eyes
As you asked me not to go
And in a stupid bout of pride
I gave away the sweetest thing
That I ever had in sight
Ten seconds ago
I was running through the red light
Screaming at my failing life
And I often wondered why I chose the hard way
Why I do it to myself
[Chorus]
So insecure
You get used to it after a while
I wanna say that we could be okay
But I can't look at you the same
As this stained glass house
Came crashing down
And I'm picking up the pieces of this beautiful life
That I smashеd
One pane at a time


[Verse 2]
Tеn days away
And I am staring at the page
Of fancy cursive letters
That only mean one thing
"You're invited to the day
That we give her away"
Ten days to show her
That I have grown and I am older
On this day in late October
Yellow's always been her color
But we won't ever get any closer
Wonder if I'll show up sober
[Chorus]
So insecure
You get used to it after a while
I wanna say that we could be okay
But I can't look at you the same
As this stained glass house
Came crashing down
And I'm picking up the pieces of this beautiful life
That I smashed
One pane at a time


[Verse 3]
Ten years passed
And I saw a picture of your face
Smiling blindly at a camera
That I probably should've erased
And I wonder where you are
And where you might've been
If I had been the man I said I'd have been
Ten years from then
