Look at me now in my castle made of glass

Your hands are just like hammers, every touch another crack

Swing them any harder, watch my sparkling house collapse.

I know I said I wanted this, but now I've come to see

That I gave you way too much of me

You locked me up and hid the key.

Now I'm taking myself back, even if I let everyone down

I don't stand a chance here

Finally, I'm saving myself.

Oh, you call it unrequited, while you stab me in the back

This must be love, 'cause you decided it

But my blood is on your hands, it's spilling all over the rug.

You act surprised to see me lay here

Tell me I've got to clean this up

You think the time is gonna heal this

Really time is gonna heal this?

No. your time is up.

Now I'm taking myself back, even if I let everyone down

I don't stand a chance here

Finally, I'm saving myself.

Call her a "survivor" or a "victim"

Oh where'd they get the nerve?

Keep using black-and-white on colored pages to paint the one who's gotten hurt

But would you look at both her wings

Is she an angel or a demon?

Somebody, better call the priest

Grab your pitchforks and your torches

Start the fires, grab the horses

Let's all slay her like a beast

Go ahead and try to get me.

Now I'm taking myself back, even if I let everyone down

I don't stand a chance here

Finally, I'm saving myself.

Look at me now in my castle made of glass.
