Another upbeat and motivational track from This is Acting, “Broken Glass” features a roaring chorus with a heavy drumbeat.
Zane Lowe premiered the song on his radio show on January 27th, 2016. At the end of the track he called Sia “one of the best modern songwriters.”
In an interview with Rolling...
[Verse 1]
Lay down your arms
I don't wanna fight anymore
Rough seas will be calm
Hold on while we weather the storm
[Pre-Chorus]
We fall down like dogs playing dead
But our love's not worth playing chicken with
[Chorus]
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final dance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
[Verse 2]
This too shall pass
We're right where we're meant to be
There's things I don't ask
What I don't know can't hurt me
[Pre-Chorus]
We fall down like dogs playing dead
But our love's not worth playing chicken with
[Chorus]
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final dance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final dance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final dance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
Don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
Don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
[Outro]
Oh, I'm not discarding you like broken glass
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
