Glass house

Title: “Glass House”

Verse 1
We were reckless, we were fire, we were gasoline dreams
I was young, wide-eyed, drowning in your make-believe
You said run with me, I said I’m all in
Didn’t know your love was a cage I’d live in
Packed my life in boxes, left my world behind
Didn’t see the warning signs you hid between the lines

Pre-Chorus
You smiled like heaven
But you burned like hell

Chorus
You built a glass house just to watch me break
Every step I took was your next mistake
Tiptoe, tightrope, trying not to breathe
You made a warzone out of loving me
Your silence hit harder than your screams
You turned my life into a bad dream scene
Yeah you swore I was the crazy one
But look who I became when you were done

Verse 2
Same job, same halls, same air I choked
While you sat glowing in your video smoke
Controller king of a plastic throne
While I froze standing all alone
No friends, no calls, no voice, no sound
You shrunk my world till I nearly drowned

Pre-Chorus
Every word I spoke
You turned to blame

Chorus
You built a glass house just to watch me break
Every step I took was your next mistake
Tiptoe, tightrope, trying not to breathe
You made a warzone out of loving me
Your silence hit harder than your screams
You turned my life into a bad dream scene
Yeah you swore I was the crazy one
But look who I became when you were done

Bridge (breakdown / scream section)
I WASN’T CRAZY
I WAS CONTROLLED
I WASN’T BROKEN
I WAS JUST TOLD
AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN
THAT I WAS THE PROBLEM INSIDE YOUR HEAD

Final Chorus (explosive)
You built a glass house — I threw the stone
Watched it shatter when I chose my own
Voice back, spine straight, eyes awake
Turns out I was never yours to break
You lost the war you thought you won
The day I realized I was done

Outro
You wanted silence
You got goodbye
