Curtainfall

I sleep beneath the window

the echo rings

the night has come to fall

I clench my pillow

just living in my head now

I'm all alone but you are here with me

my eyes have come to rest

you chase me though I'm falling

I'm haunted by that scene

so watch me in the corner of your bin

I'm lingering in sweet obsession

with every slight remark

you made me feel like junkmail

...and I know it

like you do

we're cracking up

for salvation

like many loved before

I'm all wracked up but still I shiver

I loved you by the window

I hate to be alone now

I hate to be myself

the night I've cried has made me wither

I'm standing by the window

you're staring at me from the other side

the night becomes the day

I know we'll have to go

and our names are on the list

so sneak away and may that curtain fall
