Drop the Light - The Glass Door

Calloused hands from servant's work that you behold
A soft smile, a gentle face underneath the cloak
Such great faith, enthroned a saint, what you've come to know
You idolize me, the life that you see
But I'm like any other, I still feel pain and suffer
I still wrestle with God like anyone
Life still hits me where it hurts, I can pray but not have words
Sometimes I feel alone even on my knees
Shattering everything that you knew before
Shards of picture perfection on the floor
A broken dream when you see me behind the glass door
Reality, not as it seems
Cause I'm like any other, I still feel pain and suffer
I still wrestle with God like anyone
Life still hits me where it hurts, I can pray but not have words
Sometimes I feel alone even on my knees
The glories and many highs
Mountain tops that I have climbed
What a view
But your vantage point was so skewed
You'd say that it's grandiose
But see the other side of what you don't
Dare to look behind the veil
See toil and travail
All greatness has a price, will you see the underside?
The scars that tell my tale
My tear-soaked stained prevail
You want to turn away, but see the cost and feel the weight
Shattering everything
Shattering everything
Shattering everything
At gethsemane
The tears of agony
Behind the glass door see
Behind the glass door see
At gethsemane
The tears of agony
Do you see?
You want the promise of easy on the road
Become a saint you won't be human anymore
You strive to achieve no suffering, but look at me
Faith at its peak, behind the scenes
Look at me
Look at me
