i feel the velvet pass my face its texture keeping me awake gently reminding me to wait
my fingers graze against the wall counting the marks and holes but all my days spent rolling in a haze
is this not a stone i saw? is this not a face i saw? your voice is my only call: a bird in the window
a bird in the window
you said just see him once a day providing only what i say and kill him if he won't obey
a plate of bread a bowl of sand i'll move as quickly as i can the creek continue as i stand
is this not the door i watch? is this not the morning watch? your chains are a raking dog- a bird in the window
a bird in the window
the sun descends upon your hand the vision gasping i can't stand can't find the words just wait and stare
and as i dream they float away like puzzle pieces from the clay picture i kept except it fades
i felt you rising in my gut
ceasing the seasons keep me up
and in my dreams i hold you out
clenched in my arms but i can't stop
oh how i kept you in the dark
oh how you keep me in the dark
a bird in the window, no
a bird in the window
