Glass Palace

Climb in your bath of lye
Stripped of light, be stripped of skin
Then woven into silver silk
Sewed shut with golden thread
And pressed down
Removed of all air
Laid there to be listless
And molten glass resin
Poured over your remnants
Fixed in glass, fixed in permanence

It's the god inside of you that's empty hearted
It's the god that forces you
To break down and be departed
It's the god inside of you
That breaks your heart and
It's the god inside of you
That forces you to be destructive
Destructed

Seed of mercy garden
Planted endlessly
And uprooted through all life
And uprooted through all time

And then pressed down
Removed of all air
Laid there to be listless
When he says lie down
Of course you do
Or he'd force you to
When he says don't sleep
You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare
When he says don't eat
You wouldn't dare
He'll make sure you wouldn't dare

And it's empty hearted
It's the god that forces you to
Break down and be departed
It's the god inside of you that's empty hearted
It's the god inside of you that's empty hearted

Now he'll give you promises
Now he'll give you promises
He gives you secrets, he gives you secrets
Now he'll give you promises
Now he'll give you promises
Now he'll give you promises
Now he'll give you promises

And press you down
Remove you of all air
And lay you there to be listless
To be listless, listless, listless
