Pick A Window - Flotsam & Jetsam

Another lamp with the bulb broken out

You can’t see in here but I know how

I know glass is made of sand

But I see right through enough to understand

Downfall delivery

At any speed

You’ll scare yourself creeping up on me

Hit myself hard in the head

Thought I could hold the hit instead

I burnt myself!

Pick a window because now you’re leaving

Do you like hospital food — you will

Can your mother sew — have her stitch' this

Things fade away that’s what they tell

Look in the water can’t see myself so well

Hoping for a place that safe

You got me instead

I’ve been waiting around all day

Just to see shadows spread

I’m hiding in the basement of my mind

It’s cold and dark in here

Just what I thought

Learned my lessons well

These stitches keeping count

Going under is all I got down

Pick a window because now you’re leaving

Do you like hospital food — you will

Can your mother sew — have her stitch' this
