lyrics

If I could choose to let myself go from this machinery

Of ignorance, hatred and fear but it`s my arms that carry this

This house is supposed to be made out of glass

But the bricks in my hands turn to dust, trickle away

If I could barely choose beyond the lines of my own

Between the everlasting guilt of existence on behalf

Of privilege and what`s inside that splendid home

Made out of glass

I`m part of this, I`m part of this

Degeneration of humility we`ve always been

Degenerated

But the appearances carry us

Hands bound on our backs

We still try to grasp

What we think belongs to us is within the house of glass

Degeneration of integrity we`ve always had

Hands bound on our backs

We still try to grasp

What we think belongs to us is within the house of glass

Hands on my back

I try to grasp

I stare inside

I`m part of this

If I could choose to let myself go from this machinery

Of ignorance, hatred and fear but it`s my arms that carry this

This house is supposed to be made out of glass

But these walls give me proof

I`m part of this, I`m part of this
