The Window Lyrics by Thrice

To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere

2016

[Verse 1]
All that I've known's within the walls of this room
Where there's a window, roughly boarded up
It's true the gaps are patched, but even through the tiny cracks
I feel a wind blow, I see a light of strangest hue

[Chorus]
And there's nothing I can say - there's no way I can prove
That there's a place beyond this room
But still, there's something in the way the light comes shining through
And in the way the curtains move

[Verse 2]
Late in the night I lay awake, my eyes fixed
On the window, I strained my ears until
I thought that I might have heard a song, somehow hiding
In the soft glow, old as time and ever new

[Chorus]
There's nothing I can say - there's no way I can prove
That there's a place beyond this room
But still, there's something in the way the light comes shining through
And in the way the curtains move

[Bridge]
I found a note scratched in the wall
In a pained and earnest scrawl
The hand, I recognized, was somehow mine ...
I read each line with dread:
"There's no wind and there's no light
There's no song you hear at night
There's nowhere to hide, be terrified
It's all inside your head"

[Outro]
But still there's something in the way
The light comes shining through
And in the way - in the way the curtains move
