From the street I see your window
And I look up in
Is that even your house?
Is that Sappho you're reading?
♪
Is it cool when I don't care?
Can you feel me in the air?
Under the crack in the door
Can you tell I have no floor?
And I'm shivering just thinking
Where have you been
All these minutes
I am too stressed out to
Do the thing the train won't do
Why should I fight back?
I'm just not like that
And I'm sorry if
I have been a real bad friend
Your face too close to mine
To hear you talk
So I look up into your window
On the street where I am standing
Is that even your house?
Is that your landing?
And I wanna know what you're reading

I'm not grounded
