Glass Case Lyrics

i only feel to feel alone
i don't know who i am
who am i
if i'm not my own?
i don't know what i'd like to be
i don't know what i want
i want what
i shouldn't need

i only want to see you
to see your colors change
butterflies with pins through
in a glass case

only a shadow is shining through
i don't know where i am
where am i?
if i'm not with you

i only want to see you
to see your colors change
butterflies with pins through
in a glass case

you may never escape
you may never escape
you may never escape
you may never escape
you may never escape
you may never escape
all your pretty things break
all your pretty things break
all your pretty things break
all your pretty things break
all your pretty things break
all your pretty things break
you may never feel safe
you may never feel safe
you may never feel safe
you may never feel safe
you may never feel safe
you may never escape.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
