[Intro] Dm Am F [Verse 1]
Dm
  Five years old, first contact

Am                F
Never too young to make a contract

Dm
  My blueprints supposed to last

Am              F
I don't remember the walls made of glass
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
Learned to protect myself

Am             F
With a facade, hide what I want

Dm
Easier said than done

Am              F
With a mask on, I can’t take off
[Chorus]
                        Am               C      G
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it

                         Am              C        G
I’ve built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it

                            Am          C        G
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense

                                 Am       C    G
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering

Shattering
Shattering [Verse 2]
Dm                                    Am
  Crowd of three and I'm the one left out

            F
And that was feeding this version of me now

Dm                         Am
I was folding like paper-mache

             F
Just an ember catching into flames
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
Learned to protect myself

Am             F
All my defense is counterfeit

Dm
Harder to see the truth

Am               F
My confidence is almost spent
[Chorus]
                        Am               C      G
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it

Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense

                                 Am       C    G
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering

           Am C G
Shattering
Shattering [Bridge]
Em
Look, don't touch, it's hard enough

         F            Am
When you got a lot to lose

Em
Call my bluff when I’m too tough

       F             Am
I need you to cut me loose

                    Em     F      Am
From the prison I'm in, in my own mind

                   Em                   F
Yeah, you carry me through when I'm too tired
[Chorus]
                        Am               C      G
I've got a secret but I can't afford for you to hear it

I’ve built a habit but I haven't got the heart to break it

                            Am          C        G
Yeah, you're putting all my common sense in past tense

                                 Am       C    G
I've got thick skin but it's all porcelain and shattering, shattering
[Post-Chorus] Am C G
           Am C G
Shattering

          Am C G
Shattering

               Am C G
Oh, shattering
[Outro] Am
