slip under the door is the third track on glass beach’s sophomore album plastic death.
The song was confirmed to be about how power exerts itself, “not just at the broader societal level, but all the way down to the body & mind” by lead singer J. McClendon.
It was first teased during the ARG...
[Intro]
By no design
In the stairwell of your carapace
Your fortress of sinew and steel
[Verse 1]
Don't you get bored
Just staring through the crack in the door?
You know no one is home
So why act unsure?
Your malnourished architecture
Trembles with each austere breath
[Chorus]
A recursive dream of
A panic attack
The bell keeps ringing
Slip under the door
[Verse 2]
Don't you get bored
Just staring through the crack in the door?
Come on in, it's so cold outside
We're stocked for a war
Munitions from the ceiling to the floor
Show your teeth, let mе be terrified
[Chorus]
Oh and wе will make no
Compromises
The bell keeps ringing
Slip under the door
[Bridge]
Is the body a property?
Razor wire anatomy
Maybe I'm "4real"
Let me spell it out
In the soft topography
Of corporeal territory
Maybe I'm "4real"
Is the body a property?
[Outro]
Is the body a property?
Take control of your property
Mutilation autonomy
Reclamation of territory
