Windows to the World Songtext
von Listener

October is my favorite color
And you you′re growing on me
This is real life like the others
I can see it but it's not real
In the window to the world
Mirrors moving all around her
Tubes breaking up the girl
There was no way but your light found her
Good morning at the speed of sound!
You want to be her lonely sun
You want to be the only one
Hey buddy she was beautiful
Her glow moves on forever
Floating past the stars
Beyond where we ever will go


You thought staying in that bottle would help your march near the edge
Or living in her promises
Said she′d follow you to the end
But that's just what you wanted
You know you always did
No regrets and no surrender, no excuses, no pretend
But home is not a place
It's where you fill in the blanks
It′s not a hologram, it′s not for you to break
Hey buddy she was beautiful, she'll always be your first
Right there how you remember
Past where we ever will go

And the lights have to be bright to see anything at all

You gave, you were, you thought, you made
They took, they bent, they threw away
You didn′t want it in your house
Refused to use it yourself
You lived, you dreamed, you built, you caved
They took it all they got their way
You didn't want it in your house
Refused to use it yourself
Why did you make it in the first place?
Why did you make it?


You weren′t built for war like that
I don't think you had a fight
As if money and some cigarettes would take it all off your mind
But that′s just how it happens
When you're not looking, then it's the end
For all your perfect planning, the good intentions in your head
Each one you make goes out
You could have sold it all out
Hey buddy she was beautiful
She′ll always be by your side
Far out past the clouds, beyond where we ever will go

She was the first you sent away
Her light lives on electrically
That made it all worthwhile
Why did you make it in the first place?
You took us all out to the moon
You promised you would be there too
And that made it all worthwhile
Why did you make it in the first place?
Why did you make it?
