Beyond The Glass

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm scraping my name off the mailbox The one that I signed when I still believed There's a hole in the drywall where my fist met the plaster And I'm the one who has to patch it, I'm the one who bleeds My demons voice is a coin in my pocket I keep flipping it, heads, I'm the failure again I don't recognize the face in the bathroom mirror He's wearing my clothes but he's not my friend [Chorus] Point the finger at the man in the glass He's the one who let it all go bad Every road I burned, every bridge I burned I did it to myself, I did it to myself Point the finger at the man in the glass He built the walls and he locked the past Don't blame a stranger, look at what I've done I'm the dark inside the light, I'm the loaded gun [Verse 2] I'm rewinding the clocks in the black room Trying to find the minute I went wrong My body's a house that the termites are winning And I'm still paying rent to live in this song The dinner table's set for a person Who used to sit up straight and with a smiling face Now I eat standing over the sink in the dark With a fork and a hand I don't want to face [Chorus] Point the finger at the man in the glass He's the one who let it all go bad Every road I burned, every bridge I burned I did it to myself, I did it to myself Point the finger at the man in the glass He built the walls and he locked the past Don't blame a stranger, look at what I've done I'm the dark inside the light, I'm the loaded gun [Bridge] Maybe I could lie down in the garden Let the dirt do the work I can't Maybe I could disappear a season Come back as somebody with a different hand But I know that the soil doesn't change you It just holds you till you're ready to stand [Verse 3] So I'm learning to speak to the quiet The voices that tell me I'm the black sheep I don't have a map, I don't have a feeling Just a pulse that's still stubbornly counting sleep And if I'm the disappointment, then fine I'm the disappointment who's still in the room Turning the clocks just to prove I'm alive Even if I'm not sure I want to [Chorus] Point the finger at the man in the glass He's the one who let it all go bad Every road I burned, every bridge I burned I did it to myself, I did it to myself Point the finger at the man in the glass He built the walls and he locked the past Don't blame a stranger, look at what I've done I'm the dark inside the light, I'm the loaded gun I'm the dark inside the light, I'm the only one I'm the dark inside the light, I'm the only one
