The weight of our own sin
only shards hanging
after the stones
have been thrown in our glass houses
how little we think
when we are judging others
the same test we would fail
if the light were shined
if the attention was cast
on our own failings
the costs of hypocrisy
falling like glass
shards only remaining
blood on the ground
