Window

from Speck by Alexa Woodward

lyrics

She leaned out of the window
holding a cigarette
she had a lust for jumping
but thought better of it
down upon the street below
a silence deafening
the noise all around was so loud, so loud
her blood was melancholy
Oh morning, a bitter thing
a night without a single dream
now these songs, they only come in sleep
and a nightmare is better than nothing
chorus:
In a little window where you place
your burnt offerings
I am just a thief bringing my poem,
and my body
He sang to her of Caroline,
the daughter of a miner
it cut so soft when he reached the line
where sunlight walked beside her
By the pigeons in the park,
the sun, it speckled bright
he told her tales of light and dark
and music lit the night
Oh morning, a bitter thing
a night without a single dream
now these songs, they only come in sleep
and a nightmare is better than nothing
