Through Glass Lyrics

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh God, it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

How do you feel? That is the question
But I forget you don't expect an easy answer
When something like a soul becomes initialized
Folded up like paper dolls and little notes
You can't expect a bit of hope
So while you're outside looking in
Describing what you see
Remember what you're staring at is me

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

How much is real? So much to question
An epidemic of the mannequins
Contaminating everything
We thought came from the heart
It never did right from the start
Just listen to the noises
(Null and void instead of voices)
Before you tell yourself
It's just a different scene
Remember it's just different from what you've seen

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
And all I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
And all I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you, yeah-ah
And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you, yeah-ah

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh God, it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you, yeah-ah
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you, yeah-ah
And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you, yeah-ah
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you, yeah, yeah

Oh, and the stars
Oh, and the stars, they lie

What is the Meaning of Through Glass?

A profound exploration of isolation and disillusionment, this song delves into the feeling of being trapped in one's own mind, akin to living life "through glass." The lyrics suggest a struggle with the passage of time and a longing for genuine connection. The repeated reference to stars that shine yet lie could indicate the allure and deception of fame or distant dreams. The line about mannequins contaminating everything hints at societal pressures to conform, which can lead to a loss of authenticity. Ultimately, the song is a poignant commentary on how external expectations can create internal turmoil.
