I clumsily knocked over Chris' favorite glass
And I shattered it all apart
And even though I apologized a thousand times
I just knew I broke her heart
Oh these broken things
Forever gone
Oh these broken things
Can't move on
Lisa said she'd visit me when she came to town
But she never made it to my welcome mat
I think she did not want to see my pain
She was always weak like that
Smash, biff, bam, boom
I remember that one very special summer day
I think of it now and then
And I just want to somehow stop all space and time
But deep down I know it won't be perfect again
Turn on the TV and it’s blah, blah, blah
So ’n’ so is in a menage a trois
It’s just a distraction to keep you sated
Undercooked and overweighted
God is as silent as a stone
If He’d speak He’d say, “Leave me alone
I want no part of your reality
Your reality is fakery
Your reality is a joke to me”
