Break the Glass Lyrics by Superchunk

What a Time to Be Alive

2017

[Verse 1]
Nothing looks familiar out there
But everything's the same
It's just the center leaking out
While all the trees go up in the flames
Almost pretty from a distance
But it's hot beyond the glass
When the window breaks you'll feel it
And that thought might be the last
[Chorus]
Break the glass
Don't use the door
This is what
The hammer's for
Yeah
[Verse 2]
Everyone is acting normal
But no one's sleeping through the night
There's a glow under the nightstand
It's a sickly kind of light
Maybe takes you down a hole
Maybe leads you out of reach
Use the darkness as a cover
Meet your friends down on the beach
[Chorus]
Break the glass
Don't use the door
This is what
Our hands are for
[Chorus]
Break the glass
Don't use the door
This is what
Our hands are for
Yeah
