Lyrics: This is a new song we've been working on, we're a pretty new band and this is for our first EP. The song is about a break-up between a couple who fell in love during school, and split apart during adulthood, pretty simple and pretty easy to relate to.

Eyes Of Existence - Lower The Glass, It's Cracked

[Intro]
You said it was over,
You said it was your tears that filled up the cup,
And now that we're older,
The whiskey bottles empty so please let us bottle up.

I gave you a chance, I gave you one more chance!
But you threw that away like it's a...
Pointless piece of paper full of written scars,
And the paint won't fade away, like the pain inside my heart...

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
I was sat at the back, and you were sat at the front,
We were making gestures that our teacher couldn't bare to confront,
When I blow you a kiss, you'd trade me a smile,
And it gave me that funny feeling inside for a little while,

Now it's peeling my skin, right off of my back,
When you walked away and you never turned back!
Now you're grabbing my heart, and you tear it in half,
Oh you tear it in half, you're tearing me apart!

[Chorus]
So lower your glass, for the worst to come!
Lets drink ourselves to sleep, until the rise of the sun!
And if the glass is cracked, so is your head,
And if your heart ain't broke, don't fall in love instead...

Don't fall in love instead...

[Verse 2]
I remember at the party oh you looked like a mess,
Black ink bleeding from your eyes and dripping onto your dress,
You were screaming, you were shouting, you were so upset,
I couldn't bare to see you torn down and you looking like death,

Oh what, what, what, what, what, what, what went wrong?
When you br, br, br, br, br, br, broke down on the floor,
You said this was the last shot, the last shot for you, you, you and me!
So lets down our sorrows with the last of the whiskey,

[Chorus] (x2)
So lower your glass, for the worst to come!
Lets drink ourselves to sleep, until the rise of the sun!
And if the glass is cracked, so is your head,
And if your heart ain't broke, don't fall in love instead...

[Intro reprisal]

[Heavy instrumental]

[Chorus] (x2)
So lower your glass, for the worst to come!
Lets drink ourselves to sleep, until the rise of the sun!
And if the glass is cracked, so is your head,
And if your heart ain't broke, don't fall in love instead...
