Title:

“Shattered Glass and Broken Frames”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
C G Am F
Cracks on the wall, echoes in the hall,
C G Am F
Reflections fading in the shattered glass;
C G Am F
Dreams we used to chase, lost in a maze,
C G Am F
Silhouettes dancing in the broken frames.

(Chorus)
Em Am C G
Tomorrow we rise, yesterday we forget,
Em Am C G
Bearing the weight of our hollow regrets.
Em Am C G
In shattered glass and broken frames,
Em Am C G
We find pieces of us, in whispers of our names.

(Verse 2)
C G Am F
Shadows and light, day turns into night,
C G Am F
In the silence, our hearts beat out loud;
C G Am F
Scars that we hide, in the rhythm, we confide,
C G Am F
In shattered glass and broken frames, we find our crowd.

(Chorus)
Em Am C G
Tomorrow we rise, yesterday we forget,
Em Am C G
Carving stories in our silhouette.
Em Am C G
In shattered glass and broken frames,
Em Am C G
We find pieces of us, in the echoes of our claims.

Sudden Routine is not just a band for me, it’s a refuge. Their music has a healing quality that I can’t quite put into words. The unique blend in their sound, the raw, emotional lyrics, and the way they connect with their audience is just enchanting. I have been a fan since their first underground gig and have seen them evolve into this beautiful musical entity. Their song “Shattered Glass and Broken Frames” encapsulates their journey, it’s my absolute favorite. I wear their name on my sleeve, and their songs in my heart. They are a bright spot in our often mundane routines, giving us a sudden burst of life and joy.
