[Verse 1]
Watching the days slip by so fast
Knowing our fate has long been cast
Working our fingers to the bone
'Cause nobody loves you when you're gone
[Chorus 1]
Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where all of my love comes pouring out
[Verse 2]
You know you'll always be my man
But grab yourself sweetness where you can
Cause sooner or later we're gonna die
Left to the dogs under the sky
[Interlude]
I cracked a piece of broken glass
I cracked a piece of broken glass
[Chorus 2]
Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where waves of my love come tumbling out
You say that all the good is gone
That I have forgotten who I am
Free as a bird, wild as the wind
But somehow I cannot let you in
[Outro]

Nobody Loves You: I was going through a painful divorce at the time of writing these words. I was drowning in shame, sadness and excruciating loneliness. The line everyone asks about in the break is “ I cracked a piece of broken glass.”👩🏼🦰#timstwitterlisteningparty pic.twitter.com/SYyFWPtIQ3— Ga...
