Lyrics

Eggshell World

[Verse 1]

I wasn't sad but I wasn't happy

Until the night unfurled

Got mistaken for somebody

Welcome to my eggshell world

[Chorus]

I wanna go home but I wanna stay under the moon

If there were two of me, well, one could be with you

The one that lives, the other hurts

Breaking their skin on the eggshell world

[Verse 2]

I don't blame you, yeah I blame you

For doing what you prefer

I should have come here with a hammer

To break apart the eggshell world

[Chorus]

I wanna go home but I wanna stay under the sun

If there were two of me, one would stay and one could run

But truth be told, we are meant

To bury ourselves in the eggshell world

[Chorus]

I wanna go home but I wanna stay under the moon

If there were two of me, well, one could be with you

The one that lives, the other hurts

Breaking their skin on the eggshell world
