Windows

(album: Close It Quietly - 2019)

I still like looking out windows
I know how to forgive those
Sceneries for surrounding me
But you did it differently

I don't know how with you
Though I'd really like to
Waiting for you to become
Something I heard somewhere once
I want guidance, direction
Even for just a second

Spit out diamonds, cough up rubies
Call me when you can see through me
Spit out diamonds, cough up rubies
Call me when you can see through me

Do I have regrets? Certainly
Mostly the fantasy
I let it encircle me
But you did it differently

Do I bounce? I bounce back
Aimless maybe but a worthy task
The slow leak, slow drain
Or: never notice you're boiling
But the fill up is quick
You just have to wait for it

Spit out diamonds, cough up rubies
Call me when you can see through me
Spit out diamonds, cough up rubies
Call me when you can see through me
