Window
Martsch Doug Lyrics

There's a color and a shape to the night
Night has its own unique characteristics that can be perceived through color and shape

I'm not surprised you never wanted me to notice
It's understandable that you didn't want me to realize the beauty of the night

When the darkness is covering and covering everything
The darkness is enveloping and consuming everything in its path

I can feel it in my hands I try to hold it but it slips away
I can feel the darkness but it's impossible to grasp and hold onto

The empty desert bowl
A dried out, barren desert

And my belly's getting low down to the sand
I'm getting hungry and desperate for sustenance

And all that's left at dawn is ashes
After the darkness, all that remains is destruction and emptiness

No more blood or bones
Life has been extinguished and there's nothing left but decay

And the green sun in my heart
My passion and fire, though burning brightly, is ultimately unfulfilling

Although its always burning never keeps me warm
My passion may always be there, but it can never provide me with genuine comfort

I'm always riding in its flames
I'm constantly surrounded and driven by my passion, but it only serves to fuel my internal flame

And if it isn't clear
In case there's any confusion

Then clear the way for something dear
Make room for something meaningful and special

And if you try
If you make an effort and attempt to connect

I'll try not to explain
I'll try not to overanalyze and complicate things

Open up your window to the world
Expand your horizons and let the world in

If you want the world to bring you happiness
Happiness is attainable if you open yourself up to the world around you

And pain
But being open to the world also means feeling its pain
