Tell me.

Why do you sing?
Does it not get tiring
Singing to nobody?

You just keep on flying
Straight through the desert
Straight into Midnight

I can still see you
I sadly still hear you
Perched on my windowsill

Let's just make one thing clear
I am not torturing you
I am not the cruel one

Do you think your music soothes me?
I prefer the silence
To your screeches of anguish

Do you think anyone appreciates
Birds that sing by windows
When one wants to be alone?

You just keep on singing
Why do you hate me?
Why do you not leave me?

Tell me.
