[Hook] Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass [Verse 1] You were the sweetest thing That I ever knew But I don't care for sugar honey If I can't have you Since you've abandoned me My whole life has crashed Won't you pick the pieces up 'Cause it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass [Hook] Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass [Verse 2] The sun's still shining in the big blue sky But it don't mean nothing to me Oh let the rain come down Let the wind blow through me I'm living in an empty room With all the windows smashed And I've got so little left to lose That it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass [Hook] Walking on walking on broken glass [Bridge] And if you're trying to cut me down You know that I might bleed 'Cause if you're trying to cut me down I know that you'll succeed And if you want to hurt me There's nothing left to fear 'Cause if you want to hurt me You're doing really well my dear [Verse 3] Now every one of us was made to suffer Every one of us was made to weep But we've 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 Don't let me keep on walking (don't let me keep on walking) I can't keep on walking (keep on walking on) Keep on walking on broken glass [Hook] Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass
