I'm sorry you started noticing
That the sky is just a painting
Please don't stare, no one understands
Just focus on the touch of my hand

Go talk to her about your days
But don't be fooled by her weather
Cause she's got many other friends
And a guy who doesn't care about them

And I know exactly what to do
I'll just wait until it's over
If it takes a lifetime to find her
Push me aside and let me sleep
I come from a house
With a single window to the sky

You're walking around the same places
Always stopping right at the door
Turn around now and step outside
Look at the sun on the ceiling

It's dark and shining with colours
It's as real as anything else
You won't get much from this city
It's haunted by people like me

And I know exactly what to do
I'll just wait until it's over
If it takes a lifetime to find her
Push me aside and let me sleep
I come from a house
With a single window to the sky

If something's wrong you needn't say
Cause I know all about the way
Your head fell in love with the ground
Now you want a place to lie down

A tiny space with just enough room
To contain you and nothing else
To whisper to your scattered self
And push it back into your skull
