Fat Freddys Drop - This Room lyrics

I sit and watch you from my window,

givin' yourself away,

You've been working hard all day,

I see the ground catch at your feet,

I see the sweet signs of defeat,

Like your bleeding but you feel no pain.

And then you turn to me instinctively,

checkin' if you're alone,

like a reflex from my guilty mind,

I fall away into the background,

like a shadow on the wall,

to leave you with your piece of mind.

I watch from my window up high,

All alone in this room,

so many people go the same way,

I think its time that I changed my views

Like a king in his lonely kingdom,

A ruler who had no rules.

See I got nothing left to lose,

I think it's time I changed my views.

Why did you choose my way?

Why did you come down this lonely street?

Was it to meet me? Was it to tango with the roots they sound so sweet.

Sweeter than gold,

Sweeter than pain,

Sweeter than honey

more power than money.

Walking along this lonely street,

Someone I'd like to meet,

Someone I'd like to know,

as a kindred soul.

But oh so spiritual the sound that sounds like waterfalls

running away, never the same

Changing my view of you everyday.

I watch from my window up high,

All alone in this room,

so many people go the same way,

I think its time that I changed my views

Just like a king in his lonely kingdom,

Like a ruler who had no rules.

See I got nothing left to lose,

I think it's time I changed my views.

I think it's time I changed my views. (x3)
