lyrics

Porcelain
Your eggshell heart’s been broken
I’m not oblivious. You cannot hide the pieces
Not behind a face of glass.
I can see right through your smile
I See the mess that’s deep within
And I’m afraid that I can
Never make it whole again.

Such fair skin.
Beautiful but delicate like Porcelain.
Don’t you love too much. Don’t give in!
Baby you are Porcelain.
So don’t you fall in love again
You’d shatter by the touch.
Shatter by the touch. Porcelain.

You’re frozen feelings start to crack
They split and drift apart.
The thoughts that kept you tethered
Severed by a glacial shard.
Again you brave the crushing waves
While still your sail is ripped and torn.
Do you not realize Damaged souls are not reborn?

Refrain

Porcelain
You are too fragile to hold, Your skin is paper thin.
The slightest nick and you fold
You just can’t keep it in.
You may be fragile to hold
Your skin like porcelain.
But you don’t care cause if you’re
scared to lose you’ll never win.
Your hollow bones may fracture
Under sticks and stones But indestructible the iron will you call your own.
I can’t imagine all the pain you must be in but still you stand
And through A face of glass I see a heart that’s whole again.

Refrain

Touch of skin. Baby you are, baby you are Porcelain.
But you will fall in love again
No matter if you’ll shatter by the touch.
Shatter by the touch. Porcelain.

Tragic Magic
by SPELL

supported by 7 fans who also own “Porcelain”

"...Spell liken their music to “hypnotic heavy metal” and it’s a truly spot on description from hem. From the first notes of Tragic Magic to the final ones, it holds you and puts you into a trance like no other that by the end of it you feel different. You gotta sit with what you just heard and soak it in before moving on." Read more on Antifascist Steel: https://tinyurl.com/wd3nfsp karol tolstoy
