Broken Window

Alone I awoke to the sound of the rain Can't you leave me? The constant tapping at my window pane So eager to see I watch the sky behind broken glass The colors so rusted and hued Am I transparent, alone in my haze? My thoughts are of you I turned away from your gaze And disappeared in the crowd Your eyes sought, but couldn't find I don't want to be found Is it so hard to believe in myself? I'm just a blur My face is blank to the outside world To avoid being hurt I only speak when I'm spoken about So empty I feel If I'm to drown I will drown all alone It's not a big deal I turned away from your gaze And disappeared in the crowd Your eyes sought, but couldn't find I don't want to be found

Don't wanna hear about your day I'm sure I've had one just the same Do you really think that you're alone I don't know quite what you achieve You're not so young, but still naive These are things that I just can't condone Avaricious voice of you, Self oblivious, just not true No one will feel it in your eyes Do you know what you'll become? Give your sorry world a hope Left alone you just might realize Down is darker than it should be All the lights are dim so low And the traffic that's in sight No one stops to speak to you Cause you have no time for others They just keep themselves inside Don't wanna hear about your day Sure it really hasn't changed Would you listen if I told you? When there's nothing I could say To help you try to change your ways Is your isolation coming through? I don't want to be a friend That's not the way to bring closure I try, but I can't pretend That I ever felt anything for you Rumours flow and people whisper But they don't know much at all I don't want to be a friend That's not the way to bring closure

I find it hard to speak my mind I guess I need encouraging To escape and maybe find A cure for my ruins I'm young enough to change my ways My future's still not set I can harbor any blame And learn from my regrets I have problems just like you I won't drink them all away I see no need to talk them through I have demons just the same To keep them in is my remedy In time I hope they'll fade It's not the way I know to feel But allow me such a grace I try to find the way to say something It's always been in vain, when I say something Could you really help me to say something Bring me close to you and say something I've told you that I'm fine Surely that's enough Why are you concerned? My diary knows it all It's healed that I confide A tomb for all I've learned
