Glass House Lyrics

We deceive the world with lies we hide
Behind the smiles we can see the home of desperate hearts
The truth is falling down
The illusion we’ve become
A fear we can’t outrun
We’re closing in our emptiness
We’re broken

You alone
You can see right through this glass house we call home
You alone
You can take away the pain
Yeah, you have shown
You can break right through this glass house of our souls
Make us whole again
Make us whole

We fight to cover up the scars
From our charade there’s a war between who we are
Until we make believe
It’s over now
We’re falling

You alone
You can see right through this glass house we call home
You alone
You can take away the pain
Yeah, you have shown
You can break right through this glass house of our souls
Make us whole again
Make us whole

I’m running to escape the walls that trapped this heart in
The door is open, please come save me
Never want to hide behind the scars that I’ve become
That I’ve become

Because you alone
You can take away the pain
Yeah, you have shown
You can find a way to change
You alone
You can see right through this glass house of our souls
Make us whole again
Make us whole

Make us whole again

Cover art for Glass House lyrics by Red

This whole album appears to be about the state of mankind. Red albums have a habit of of centering each one around a certain concept. "End of Silence" was about searching and finding God once you've lost everything. "Innocence and Instinct" was about the war within us and proving your innocence. "Until We Have Faces" was about finding your identity. Release the Panic was hard to decipher, but it appears to be about the fragile state of mankind itself. And how people are spiraling toward self-destruction. This song is practically the epitome of that idea. God is the only one who can break though the lies that have been fed to us through the media and politics. Glass house is about god saving us.

My Interpretation

The tendency of our world to panic as a whole, over what would seem like nothing at all.

It should say "conceal a home of desperate hearts".

we conceal a home of desperate hearts

There's a war between who we are And who we make believe

I, I'm running to escape the walls That have trapped this hurt inside The door is open, please come save me I, I Never want to hide behind The disguise that I've become

Cover art for Glass House lyrics by Red

We can't hide the lies we say or cloud the judgement of others by trying to cover ourselves up. As hard as some try, they end up bringing it all back up.

My Interpretation

Its seems that every album has hints of recovery and different stages of recovery or addiction. Getting into recovery, relapse, find help in recovery, getting back there lives

The song basically talks about how the world cant see all the problems youre going through but God always can
