Houses of Glass
Translucent Reflections: Unveiling Life's Glass Houses
Lyrics
What matters is I know I'm right.
Asserting confidence in being correct.
Not a big deal to tell the good and the bad apart.
Emphasizing the ease of distinguishing between good and bad.
Born into this code unified.
Expressing a sense of unity with a predetermined set of principles.
Deep down inside I know I'm right.
Reiterating internal conviction of being right.
Houses and houses, and houses of glass,
Metaphorical depiction of fragile and transparent structures.
time in arrest, bodies first class.
Describing a frozen moment in time and privileged bodies.
Houses on houses, on houses of glass,
Continuation of the metaphor of glass houses, emphasizing layers.
bulletproof coffins with fossils of us.
Imagery of indestructible containers holding remnants of existence.
To peak in, to look, oh, such a faux pas.
Highlighting the taboo of intruding into others' private lives.
Can't sneak inside, no, don't even try.
Emphasizing the impossibility of unauthorized entry.
I look through the window and what do I see?
Observing the outside world through a transparent barrier.
Everything around is out to get me.
Paranoia and a feeling of being targeted by the surroundings.
I look around and what do I see?
Reflecting on one's environment and its self-referential nature.
Everything around me reminds me of me.
Noticing that everything reflects the individual's identity.
Built in my likeness, built in my name.
Attributing the surroundings to being created in one's likeness.
I am safe, I'm a god of the same.
Feeling god-like and secure within this constructed world.
The glass in my chest beats with parental care,
Symbolic description of a transparent chest, suggesting openness.
my heart is transparent for all who are there.
Emphasizing the transparency of emotions for all to see.
In the depths of the branches of my family tree,
Metaphorically exploring the family roots and legacy.
my seed has a purpose, a reason to be.
Ascribing purpose and significance to one's descendants.
What matters is I know I'm right.
Reiteration of confidence in being correct.
Not a big deal to tell the good and the bad apart.
Repeating the idea of easily distinguishing between good and bad.
Born into this code unified.
Reaffirming a sense of unity with a predefined code.
Deep down inside I know I'm right.
Reconfirming internal conviction of being right.
Houses on houses and houses of glass.
Continuation of the metaphor of fragile and transparent structures.
Those who stand last, they write the past
Stating the influence of those who endure and shape history.
and the land where I stand is my birthright to keep -
Asserting a claim to the land as an inherent birthright.
here's a paper with a stamp to put all doubts to sleep.
Symbolizing official validation to dispel doubts.
No fear my dear, it's where I belong.
Expressing comfort and belonging in one's environment.
No need to learn words to a foreign song.
Rejecting the need to understand foreign concepts.
In the depths of the branches of my family tree,
Revisiting the metaphor of family roots and legacy.
oh, finally, a reason to be.
Finding a meaningful purpose within the family tree.
