lyrics

I recognised a face there in the crowd
tears behind a veil
A laugh inside a sigh

The echo of a thousand hearts forlorn
Wind without a sail
Or is it applause, is it mine?

I know that I am sick
But I'll be fine
I'm always fine
It's just a case of glitterlung this time

We built these diamond castles just to hide behind
but only ever wanted to be free
When I arrived here lost, I found my home
Thanks to you ,there's nothing left to see

I know that I am sick
But I'll be fine
I'm always fine
It's just a case of glitterlung this time

The whole point was we didn't care what dawn would bring
What on earth made you think we'd want to see the sun?
We'd rather die of glitterlung

Sometimes these days I find it hard to breathe
I bare my soul before I ask your name
The air is thick with stars flung from my hand
Turn up all the lights and let me shine

I know that I am sick
But I'll be fine
I'm always fine
It's just a case of glitterlung
I know that I am sick
But I'll be fine
I'm always fine
It's just a case of glitterlung
I know that I am sick
But I'll be fine
We'll all be fine
It's just a case of glitterlung this time

What on earth made you think we'd want to see the sun?
We'd rather die of glitterlung
