lyrics

La, la la...

You cry, broken tears of glass
Filled with broken love, dreams that are lost
You try, not to fall apart
Keep hold of your broken heart
Before it crumbles to dust

And you dream and you hope
And you run and you fall
In a slump all over again
And you try to hold on
To whatever's not gone
But its hard to fix glass that is broken

Your skin, white and pale as snow
Hard to wipe the stains off, hard to wipe off the blood
So hard, on the outside
One bump and you scar inside
How easy it's to die

And you dream and you hope
And you run and you fall
In a slump all over again
And you try to hold on
To whatever's not gone
But its hard to fix glass that is broken
And your cracks start to split
And your skin starts to itch
Want to hurt in this desperation
And your heart has this hole
That will never go
China doll starts breaking

My dear china doll
We can fill this hole
You just have to let us help you
Whenever you're sad
Just take my hand
And we'll carry your heart with you

And you dream and you hope
And you run and you fall
In a slump all over again
And you try to hold on
To whatever's not gone
But its hard to fix glass that is broken
And your cracks start to split
And your skin starts to itch
Want to hurt in this desperation
And your heart has this hole
That will never go
China doll starts breaking

La, la la...
