Through Glass lyrics

sometimes looking through the glass at someone you dont get the true meaning. we all need to just stop fighting and show who we really are. i dont realy even know who i am yet but one day i might figure it out. im laughing on the outside and dying on the inside, so no one knows who i am either. im fighting for what i love. and this song the part that says "im looking at you through the glass, dont 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" means that your being looked at from an angle that might not be real for you, and time passes so quickly well never be able to catch it. but then it feels like youre home and youre in your own head knowing wat exactly i going on in your perpective. if somebody has a different opinion id like to here about it, email me at:

This song is very introspective and complex, as far as songs go. Corey Taylor is known for actually having a point.

I think this song is about not just looking through the facade a person puts up - like smiling and acting perfectly fine when they are really on the verge of suicide. You also have to see through the fog of other people's visions of the person. Maybe they see this person as weird, a nuisance, dangerous, or a fuck up. You have to give the person a clean slate and get to know them without going on the opinions of others.

I also think parts of this song are telling you to look inside yourself and find what you think you are, not what others think you are.

"and its the stars that lie to you". It means that sometimes you believe people who are important to you when you should realy only trust yourself, like when they say you are one thing, but you know you're not, and you just agree because you think they're right just because of who they are.

In all, I think the meaning is to find yourself, and to find who a person really is by sifting through facades and viewpoints to find what is real.

this song is amazing i have to say but the genral meaning of this is what you make of it as long as it makes sence to you its the meaning to me this song means that you have to see whats on the inside not the out you have to see whats really in the person

This song is hard to figure it out. I don't agree with any of the meanings I've read soo far. But I can't come up with my own. It is a complicated song and I've though about it for hours, days even. My general idea though would be that he is singing to a person that has been on the outside of society for a long time: "I'm looking at you through the glass. Don't know how much time has passed." I think the glass is symbolic for socal boundries. "How do you feel? That is the question. But I forget you don't expect an easy awnser." I think from this, said person is going trough a hard time so they are isolating themselves from other people. "sitting all alone inside your head." This line also supports the isolation theory and how the person is thinking about their problem.
That's all I have so far. If anyone can build on it, that would be nice.

If you want to know thr TRUE meening, find the REAL music video, instead of fighting about it. But I think it's about trying to see who a person really is, don't look AT them, look at WHO they are on the INSIDE. Through the glass is something you really don't see but yet you see it all.
