Glass Dome (Nine feat. Eleanor Forte, Kagamine Len and Kaai Yuki) - Teletubbies the Musical

Track seven of TtM

LYRICS

YUKI:

He said the woods were such a dangerous place
It made no difference if it was night or day

LEN:

I don't know how something with this beauty could hold danger

LEN, ELEANOR:

But in this place, I see that I'm a stranger

ELEANOR:

When you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome
Everything you see is through a lens
Everything that's there is all there will be
Nothing's ever past your present tense

LEN:

He said there's nothing for you outside these walls

TRIO:

But there is so much here for me to be wary of

LEN:

I hear a snap

ELEANOR:

A crack and I

BOTH: 

Don't know what it is

TRIO:

I hear a growl and a hiss that I just can't dismiss

When you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome
Everything you see is through a lens
Everything that's there is all there will be
Nothing's ever past your present tense

Don't you ever want to live?
Don't you ever want to go beyond?
Even if it means getting torn apart
Doesn't something out there still call your soul?

The human condition of wanting more
The downfall of everything that came before
The call of the void that we can't control
The way that we think that if we fall then we fall

ELEANOR:

Cause when you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome

LEN:

Everything you see is through a lens

YUKI:

You can't think anything could ever be different
Outside of it

TRIO:

Far too conditioned by your present tense

But he doesn't cry when he says it
There's no tremble to his hands
And he doesn't seem to be nervous
About anything else in these lands
And it makes you start to wonder
If it's all just paranoid
Cause we're all just kids who grew up too fast
Just to fill our tailored voids

When you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome
Everything you see is through a lens
Everything that's there is all there will be
Nothing's ever past your present tense
