Breaking Glass Lyrics

Cover art for Breaking Glass lyrics by David Bowie

The line:

"Don't look at the carpet, I drew something awful on it"

is about Station To Station. On the back cover to that album, there's a picture of David drawing a Tree of Life on the ground in his ugly blue pyjamas. His discography is full of references to Alchemy, the Qaballah and the occult like that.

@rabbithowl It's nowhere NEAR any of that 'occult' nonsense he was ensconced in during his LA residence. It's simply a heartfelt plea to his then wife Angie and how much he adored her at the time [although his circumstances at the time hindered its demonstration]
