House of glass

You live inside of your house of glass

You keep it so nice and so clean

So the sunshine pours in

You can feel its warmth

Pretend you are alive

You're locked away

That isn't life

Can't you see something's missing

Don't you want the warm breeze

It tangles your hair but brightens your smile

Don't you want to hear the birds chirp

Hear the songs they sing

We can look in but you keep us out

The doors are locked

The windows are bolted

You can see us outside

Yet you stay inside

One too many times I've run into that door

Though a few cracks have formed

I've decided to knock this time

I want you to feel

To listen

To speak and be heard

If you're in your glass house

We won't hear a word

I'm asking you

Begging you

Pleading

Come out of the glass house

Let it shatter around your feet
