Lyrics of
Through Glass

Through Glass by Stone Sour expresses vocalist Corey Taylors disillusionment with the music industry and its superficiality, highlighting the disconnect between genuine art and its mass consumption.

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh God, it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you
That forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head
Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you
That forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

How do you feel?
That is the question
But I forget
You don't expect an easy answer
When something like a soul
Becomes initialized
And folded up like paper dolls and little notes
You can't expect the bitter folks
And while you're outside looking in
Describing what you see
Remember what you're staring at is me

Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has past
All I know is that it feels like forever
And no one ever tells you
That forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

How much is real?
So much to question
An epidemic of the mannequins
Contaminating everything
we thought came from the heart
It never did, right from the start
Just listen to the noises (Null and void instead of voices)
Before you tell yourself
It's just a different scene
Remember it's just different from what you've seen

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you
That forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head
Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
And no one ever tells you
That forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

And it's the stars the stars that shine for you
And it's the stars the stars that lie to you, yeah yeah
And it's the stars the stars that shine for you
And it's the stars the stars that lie to you, yeah yeah

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh God, it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you
That forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head
Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you
That forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

And it's the stars the stars that shine for you, yeah yeah
And it's the stars the stars that lie to you, yeah yeah
And it's the stars the stars that shine for you, yeah yeah
And it's the stars the stars that lie to you, yeah yeah
Oh, when the stars Oh, when the stars they lie
