My Body Is a Glasshouse (A Thousand Stones Ago) - Glasvegas

I’m vacant — I’m occupied more

If you want my love for your money

At my ankles my clothes, my knees on the floor

My innocence literally a footnote

My soul scattered somewhere below

My body is a glasshouse

A thousand stones ago

In the wake of your departing car

With your foot firmly to the floor

With your wheels burning smoke

Wide is the wind as the dust that blows

My opacity is one of a ghost

I’m somewhere over and nowhere near a rainbow

My body is a glasshouse

A thousand stones ago

Take my illegal body, you’ll never see my soul

We’ve both been here before, we both know the score

Symmetrical, parallel, we’re two vessels and nothing more

I can lead you to the water, but I can’t make you dream, woah woah

With my body for a glasshouse

A thousand and one stones ago

My body is a glasshouse

A thousand stones ago

My body is a glasshouse

A thousand stones ago

My body is a glasshouse

A thousand stones ago
