Glitter Days

Your day is a train wreck
Your night is a prison full of ghosts
The things that will kill you
Are always the ones you love the most

My life is a toothache
My head is a suitcase full of dust
It's tough to trust anyone
When there's no one you can trust

But our glitter days are coming soon
Temptation dangles like a noose of gold
Though all of the love we shared
Is like static on the radio

Rain's falling like teardrops
Can't you the feel the winter in your throat?
Cold cash in the freezer
And a bottle in your coat

Look at the cracks in the mirror
Fractures are reflected in your face
Like lines on a roadmap
To a cold and lonely place

But our glitter days are coming soon
Temptation dangles like a noose of gold
Though all of the love we shared
Is like static on the radio
Radio

Words empty as churches
Plants are broken bottles on the beach
The future we're looking for
Is still so far out of reach

Script lying unwritten
Ah, maybe we'll be forgiven in the end
Until then this mercy tender
Is all we've got to spend

But our glitter days are coming soon
Temptation dangles like a noose of gold
Though all of the love we shared
Is like static on the radio
Radio

Our glitter days are coming soon
Temptation dangles like a noose of gold
Though all of the love we shared
Is like static on the radio
