Broken Glass Lyrics
All we are is broken glass
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
We walk the streets at night
Looking for a thrill, looking for a fight
It was the first day of the rest of our lives
We work fast, never gonna die
Riding up the highway, forty-five
We didn’t know it couldn’t go on forever
All we are is broken glass
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
We fought to rule the world
Not knowing just how fragile we really were
Like it was the first day of the rest of our lives
Than the bricks began to fall
And we can see the cracks along the wall
We didn’t know it couldn’t go on forever
All we are is broken glass
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
We believe that we can go on forever
We believe that we can go on forever
Forever
All we are is broken glass
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
You cut yourself
You’re gonna cut yourself
You’re gonna cut yourself
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
Looking for a thrill, looking for a fight
It was the first day of the rest of our lives
We work fast, never gonna die
Riding up the highway, forty-five
We didn’t know it couldn’t go on forever
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
Not knowing just how fragile we really were
Like it was the first day of the rest of our lives
Than the bricks began to fall
And we can see the cracks along the wall
We didn’t know it couldn’t go on forever
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
We believe that we can go on forever
Forever
Thrown to the floor we were never meant to last
And all we are are empty shells
Try to pick us up you’re gonna cut yourself
You’re gonna cut yourself
You’re gonna cut yourself

Good one off of the new album!
this song about trying to stop cutting but but with everthing happen your try to fight the feeling of wanting to your well you mind saying you're gonna do it it try to fight those bad thoughts
This song is the best. It reminds me of my ex Alex Santos. I loved him them and I love him now but it's too much for me to handle anymore.
Well,in my opinion,this song is about Three Days Grace and how the band ended,that the cries for the band to reunite will just end with the fans receiving a big silence as answer
"I find that the fragility of glass objects is startling - maybe a reminder of contingency, mortality." -unknown In other words they may be making a comparison between human life or mortality and the fragility of glass. How neither is eternal. Hence "We didn't know it couldn't go on forever" & "we were never meant to last" Once glass is broken you cannot repair it. Sometimes people act recklessly in "looking for a thrill" as if they are invincible and forget that we are also fragile like the glass and can break at any given moment.
