Glass House - Alana Grace

When you look at me

Do you see my face

Or do you see my faults

In second place

I say I’ll do my best

But you don’t believe me

I’m sick and tired

Of touching stones

Sudden moons

And broken bones

I say I’ll make it through

But I don’t believe you

So you let it out

I let you down

But I don’t want to hear about how

I let you down

You’ve figured me out

No crumpling down

The glass house breaks

The glass house breaks

All your expectations

You just can’t contain them

The glass house breaks

«I'm lost again»

That’s what you’ll say

«I always get it

My own way»

You say «it's alright

But I don’t believe you»

Your words are always

Make or break

And your shadow

Only takes away

Everything

That I’ve ever worked for

So you let it out

I let you down

But I don’t want to hear about how

I let you down

You’ve figured me out

I’m crashing down

The glass house breaks

The glass house breaks

All your expectations

You just can’t contain them

The glass house breaks

The glass house breaks

All the shards and pieces

Will rest underneath us

The glass house breaks

Am I a failure?

Am I deluded?

Am I a living compromise?

Seen my reflection

Always distorted

Like seeing myself through your eyes

The glass house breaks

The glass house breaks

All your expectations

You just can’t contain them

The glass house breaks

The glass house breaks

All the shards and pieces

Will rest underneath us

The glass house breaks
