Walking on walking on broken glass (2x)
1. You were the sweetest thing that I ever knew
but I dont care for sugar honey if I cant have you.
Since youve abandoned me my whole life has crushed.
Wont you pick the pieces up
cause it feels just like Im walking on broken glass.
Refrain 1
Walking on walking on broken glass (2x) [erstes Mal: Oooh!]
2. The suns still shining in the big blue sky
but it dont mean nothing to me.
Oh, let the rain come down, let the wind blow through me!
Im living in an empty room with all the windows smashed
and Ive got so little left to lose
that it feels just like Im walking on broken glass.

Bridge
And if youre trying to cut me down you know that I might bleed
cause if youre trying to cut me down I know that youll succeed.
And if you want to hurt me theres nothing left to fear
cause if you want to hurt me youre doing really well my dear.

3. Now everyone of us was made to suffer,
everyone of us was made to weep
but weve been hurting one another
And now the pain has cut too deep
So take me from the wreckage,
save me from the blast!
Lift me up and take me back!
Dont let me keep on walking - Dont let me keep on walking
I cant keep on walking on - keep on walking on
I cant keep on walking on - Dont let me Dont let me
broken glass!
