Castle of Glass

[Verse 1]
I’m in this castle
Of glass and cracks
One side dripping red
Other side painted black
Wing on my left side
Feathers burned to the bone
Horn on my right side
Shining like a throne
Mirror in the floor
Shows halos in the dirt
Every step I take
Cuts, but I still flirt with the hurt (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m a sinner in a castle made of glass
One half halo, other begging to collapse
Angel in the front, demon in the back
Red and white, but my heart stays black
I’m a sinner, yeah I’m dancing in the shards
Bleeding through the beauty and the scars
If I break, I’ll break with a laugh
I’m a sinner in a castle made of glass
[Verse 2]
Red side, cracked crown
Voices saying “run it”
Black smoke halo
Tell me “own it, love it” (hey!)
White side, soft glow
Says “you’re more than this”
Gold dust on my lips
Tastes like poison and a wish
Praying with my fists
Clasped tight to my chest
Halo hanging crooked
Like a joke on my neck
[Chorus]
I’m a sinner in a castle made of glass
One half halo, other begging to collapse
Angel in the front, demon in the back
Red and white, but my heart stays black
I’m a sinner, yeah I’m dancing in the shards
Bleeding through the beauty and the scars
If I break, I’ll break with a laugh
I’m a sinner in a castle made of glass
[Bridge]
Left wing, right wing
Which one do I clip?
One side whispers “rise”
Other says “commit”
Red paint, white dress
Both stain the same
If I’m built from every fracture
Let ’em all know my name (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m a sinner in a castle made of glass
One half halo, other begging to collapse
Angel in the front, demon in the back
Red and white, but my heart stays black
I’m a sinner, yeah I’m dancing in the shards
Bleeding through the beauty and the scars
If I break, I’ll break with a laugh
I’m a sinner in a castle made of glass (glass)
I’m a sinner in a castle made of glass (ooh)

Verses half-rapped with a tight, percussive delivery; chorus explodes in soaring male vocals with stacked gang shouts.
