House of Glass

Contemplating every angle to figure out
How we wove this web of hate over our house
The endless consequences of broken promises
Now crashing down in waves and I feel there's no way out of this
OH

You built a house of glass
Just to watch it shatter
I
Tried to run away but the spirits still chased me
I've
Done all that I can, to contend with the madness
Vision of a family, radiant with merriment

Can't you see that we're picking up the pieces
Of a home, shattered by it's own inhabitants
A family that's starving for a chance to amend
To find peace
To find peace in our sleep

The constant contortion of limbs in my sleep
A constant reminder of the people who've failed me

Constantly penancing just to get by
Forgive me, forget me
Let my absence be the water in your well

When the lights cut out, will you realize
You forged a house of dreams, over dead memories
When the tides close in, and the waters rise
Will you sink or swim? Or simply, ROT
BLEGH

I tried to run away, but the spirits still chased me
I've done all that I can to contend with the madness
A vision of a family, radiant with merriment
Can't you see that we're picking up the pieces
Of a home, shattered by it's own inhabitants
A family that's starving for a chance to amend
To find peace
To find peace in our sleep

Cope
With the thought of me belittling you
Cuz I can't find the strength, to try and see this through

This house of glass (This house of glass)
This house of glass will shatter
This house of glass (This house of glass)
This house was built to shatter

Can't you see that we're picking up the pieces
Of a home, shattered by its own inhabitants
A family that's starving for a chance to amend
To find peace
To find peace in our sleep
