they didn't belong here - this glass embrace lyrics
[verse 1]
put down the newsprint pages
they have nothing good to say
the world you loved is dying
prepare your speeches for the wake
[pre-chorus 1]
awake to find another human dead with lifted hands
“let’s order a coffin.”
it’s dangerous to walk out your front door
when you don’t look like you belong
“try harder to fit in.”
[chorus]
keep your head down and hide your face
when “all made in god’s image”
means “all of those who look the same”
pledge your allegiance like it’s a prayer
what does it mean to love a country
but refuse to love the ones who live there?
[verse 2]
read the bible to your daughter
sing the hymnal to your son
teach them to hide the ways they’re different
teach them the narrowness of love
[pre-chorus 2]
awake to find a vacant house, your neighbors disappeared
“they didn’t belong here.”
when those who speak a different tongue
or use a different name for god are finally gone
whose turn will it be then?
[chorus]
keep your head down and hide your face
when “all made in god’s image”
means “all of those who look the same”
pledge your allegiance like it’s a prayer
what does it mean to love a country
but refuse to love the ones who live there?
[bridge]
“my hands are in the sky
please do not shoot, don’t end my life
i cannot breathe again
remember what you promised
my hands are in the sky
please do not shoot, don’t end my life
i cannot breathe again
remember what you promised.”
“my hands are in the sky
please do not shoot, don’t end my life
i cannot breathe again
remember what you promised
my hands are in the sky
please do not shoot, don’t end my life
i cannot breathe again.”
[chorus]
keep your head down and hide your face
when “all made in god’s image”
means “all of those who look the same”
pledge your allegiance like it’s a prayer
what does it mean to love a country
but refuse to love the ones who live there?
