House of Glass Lyrics by ERRA
My mind’s a leech, and I feel so weak
My sleep was deep, and I did not dream
There is a presence here, breathing life into our fears
Russian roulette, the cylinder is full
No gods to interfere
Requiem
This will destroy you before you mourn the passing dream
Requiem
This night won’t conclude
House of glass crashes down around you
Spread of self violence
Complicit in silence
Desire’s subsidence
Survive by defiance against defeat
Burn it down
Sweep of a nation misguided by a righteous hand
Distorted divine
Collective suicide
Turbines aflame, like monolithic candles incandescent
In a midnight aura, convulsing bodies in a ritual
My sleep was deep, and I did not dream
Burn it down. Burn it down.
Pitch black mass
House of glass
Requiem
This will destroy you before you mourn the passing dream
Requiem
This night won’t conclude
House of glass crashes down around you
Battered
Battered and scarred, post-fundamentalist humiliation
Scattered
Scattered and starved, post-indoctrination
Pitch black mass
House of glass
Burn, burn, burn it down
This will destroy you
Burn it down
Burn it to the fucking ground
(My sleep was deep, and I did not dream)
