You were a child who was made of glass You carried a black heart passed down from your dad If somebody loved you, they'd tell you by now We all turn away when you're down
You want to go back to where you felt safe To hear your brother's laughter, See your mother's face Your childhood home is just powder-white bones And you'll never find your way back
And when you're gone, will they say your name? And when you're gone, will they love you the same? If not, that's okay. If not, that's okay.
You are broken and callow Cautious and safe You are boundless and beauty With fright in your face Until someone loves you, I'll keep you safe But like them, I will give you away
And when you're gone, will they say your name? And when you're gone, will they love you the same? If not, that's okay.
And when you're gone, will they say your name? And when you're gone, will they love you the same? Oh, when you're gone, we won't say a word But you know that's okay. Don't you know that's okay?
