[Intro]
Woah-oh, aw
[Verse 1]
I walk the line, black leather, silver chains
I'm blinded by the fame every time I hit the stage
Head bangs, beer sprays, stage dives, hand waves
'Til the lights blow out, and when they go out I'll be
[Chorus]
In a glass box, suffocating from the fame and fortune
In a glass box, yeah it's quiet, with everlasting motion
And I can't breathe and I can't see and I can't be myself
And even in the spotlight, you can't see that I need help
[Verse 2]
So many hands, everywhere I go
Tryna pull me into their frigid killin' snow
Their hearts are cold, my touch aflame, now tell a lie to get higher
They all want a piece of my fire
[Pre-Chorus]
The glass box can't be broken, clearness cannot be tempted
No oxygen inside, so I don't know how I'm livin'
[Chorus]
In a glass box, suffocating from the fame and fortune
In a glass box, yeah it's quiet, with everlasting motion
And I can't breathe and I can't see and I can't be myself
And even in the spotlight, you can't see that I need help
[Bridge]
In a glass box, suffocating from the fame and fortune
In a glass box, yeah it's quiet, with everlasting motion
With everlasting motion
[Pre-Chorus]
The glass box can't be broken, clearness cannot be tempted
No oxygen inside, so I don't know how I'm livin'
[Chorus]
In a glass box, suffocating from the fame and fortune
In a glass box, yeah it's quiet, with everlasting motion
And I can't breathe and I can't see and I can't be myself
And even in the spotlight, you can't see that I need help

This is a song about the anxiety of becoming a successful artist, and how it changes your life for good & bad reasons, but it also has a double meaning of what it might be like being a teen in today’s age growing up in such a judgemental social atmosphere.
