Eir.M - Porcelain (feat. Mørn & Kodra)

I learned to smile without a sound
To walk like I don't hit the ground
But every step is holding cracks
You never see what's running back

I keep my heart behind my ribs
Like something fragile never lived
Too many hands, too many tries
To hold what always says goodbye

If I shake, I might fall apart
If I breathe, it leaves a mark
I am porcelain
Don't hold me like you used to do
I am porcelain
One wrong word and I break into
Slow, slow hands
No pressure, no demands
I am porcelain
But I still want to be touched
By you

I built myself from quiet space
From after love in empty place
Now even silence feels too loud
Like thunder living in my mouth

I learned to love from far away
When nothing stays long enough to stay
And every time I get too close
I lose the shape I know the most

If I bend, I won't survive
If I stay, I come alive
I am porcelain
Don't hold me like you used to do
I am porcelain
One wrong word and I break into
Slow, slow hands
No pressure, no demands
I am porcelain
But I still want to be touched
By you

Maybe I was never made
For gentle love or steady hands
Maybe I was built to shatter and crack
The moment someone plays

I am porcelain
Don't turn me into memory
I am porcelain
Handle me like your tragedy
Slow, slow hands
If you stay, don't let me shatter it
I am porcelain
But I still want to be again
