Glass house

Tiptoeing across the kitchen tile at night

Holding my breath so I don't start a fight Careful how I

breathe, careful how I speak Building up a wall that's crumbling and

weak

You watch my every move like a specter in the hall

Waiting for the moment that I finally fall

I used to think this shelter was built to keep me safe

Now I'm just a prisoner trapped inside this space

(ahhh) Living in a glass house,

waiting for a crack

Giving you my everything,

getting nothing back

One wrong step and the whole thing shatters

Does anyone remember what I wanted,

what matters?

Every single window reflects a different lie

I’m tired of asking how,

I’m tired of asking why

You say you built this fortress out of love and care

So why am I suffocating on the heavy air?

Step lightly

Tread soft

It’s breaking anyway

It’s breaking today

Living in a glass house,

waiting for a crack

Giving you my everything,

getting nothing back

One wrong step and the whole thing shatters

Does anyone remember what I wanted,

what matters?
