lyrics
When Crystal Shatters
(Words & Music by Jim Butterfield)
I had a plan I thought was Oh, so fine
My perfect masterpiece was crystalline
But as it often seems to go these days
Everything changed when life got in the way (now I say)
CHORUS
I tell myself that it doesn’t matter
I tell myself oh well, hell, who cares
The problem is that when crystal shatters
Shards fly everywhere
Pretty soon I’m on the second verse
It isn’t better, it just might be worse
I’m digging holes and running out of time
This plan is really not so crystalline (Oh, I know)
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Stumbling through broken glass and twisted debris
A wasteland as far as the eye can see
All the King’s horses, and all the King’s men
Couldn’t put my crystal back together again
SOLO OVER VERSE
So now it’s come down to a matter of time
A shattered masterpiece, once crystalline
Just one more thing before I have to go
I’d say “I’m sorry”, but I think you know
