glass.prisons Lyrics

Not a person in this room

Chose this place in time

Or ever found the strength

It takes to change a mind

We couldn't find a spot

That was safe to hide

So why not cop a seat

And just embrace the ride

Nobody got the money

To go and waste this high

So why the fuck we up so early

Trying to chase down a dime

You've got a chip on your shoulder

Rest that blame on mine

Because you may hate to cry

But I'm not afraid to die

While you allow flames to rise

Say its too late to try

And it's not

(Something we both need)

Take my brush and paint the line

And I'll give you space to lie

Its my

(obligation)

I probably pushed a little farther

Than you pulled

Latched on as hard

As you could hold

Bought in larger

Than you sold

These nights are darker

Than the secrets that we told

What is trust

But a sense of adventure

That we lose as we grow up

Now what is this moment

If not a chance to call my bluff

You won't find out where this goes

If you're still leaning on that crutch

Shake it off

You're losing touch

Up on that cross

You weren't abandoned

You're just lost

Somewhere in your own thoughts

Or the feelings that you caught

I'm so sorry

But my art is all I've got not

(Something we both need)

I'm just an idiot savant

Hell I hardly even talk except for

(Obligations)

Don't you say my neighbors struggles Ain't my motherfucking business

If I see his garden dying

Best believe I'm jumping in it

If I never get them dirty

Then these hands won't make a difference

All the blood, sweat, and tears

Are just spiritual fitness

This weight upon my heart

Is so fucking relentless

I want to do so much

But the list is tremendous

And I can't catch up

With my own good intentions

When I juggle the stones you cast

From within glass prisons

A man on TV

In a suit worth more than my car saying

(Something we both need)

A career politician telling me to work hard

Its our

(Obligation)

But who intends to live up to it

For better or worse

You can always ask me for help

But peep this comeback first

Not often easy to locate

You just might have to search

And break skin

To dig me out

From underneath all my work

See, its so easy to hurt

But so hard to find a friend

Nobody moves first

Because its smarter to defend

Rules are meant to break

But hearts take longer to mend

I'm so sorry to make you wait

But let me tie up some loose ends

Only a couple moves to make

But I suppose that depends on

(Something we both need)

Shit, it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong
