Glass Houses

I'm asking you, don't close my eyes
I'm already blind to your light
And all I make out are shapes and dull colours, I
Don't mind if I forget your smile
When it's stained within my mind
Repeating the patterns, we live in glass houses

I trust that in the end
We're back where we started again
Not long 'til we're just playing pretend
Are we just hiding from ourselves?
And we don't live under clear skies any more
Always preparing for another storm
I'll always do it all alone (I'll do it all alone)

It hurts more to apologise
When I've already said this line
And it never gets better, the wound just gets deeper
Hold my hand, let it go, take it back
But you made up your mind this time
Repeating the patterns, we live in glass houses

I trust that in the end
We're back where we started again
Not long 'til we're just playing pretend
Are we just hiding from ourselves?
And we don't live under clear skies anymore
Always preparing for another storm
I'll always do it all alone

And it's always the same
Fighting when we're caught in this emotional undertow, oh-oh-oh
Who is to blame?
Now pieces don't fit the same
And I'll do it all alone

I'm asking you, don't close my eyes
I'm already blind to your light

I trust that in the end
We're back where we started again
Not long 'til we're just playing pretend
Are we just hiding from ourselves?
(Are we just hiding from ourselves?)
And we don't live under clear skies any more
Always preparing for another storm
I'll always do it all alone
(I'll do it all alone)
