❖ᴛʏɴᴅᴀʟʟ ᴇғғᴇᴄᴛ࿐ (1sᴛ ᴠᴇʀ.)

[verse] the light seeps through my wi-wi-window

and writes on everything but me, it's on my wall it's on my pill-pillow

i lie still hoping it will find me

it's patient with everything

(everything but me)

i hold my hands up to the wall, it warms me for a minute (just a minute)

then it shies away as if that's all, who am i to be greedy

it's only the sun (it's only moving on)

[chorus] it's the tyndall effect

tyndall

tyndall

i want to feel it all

don't want to be a ken doll

tyndall

tyndall

[verse] it comes again the next day

the bars keep us apart, keep us away

so i open my window wide

but i want more, so i go outside

i bask in the sun, but 'day' never lasts

the night comes in so fast

it's dark...

but the stars come out

oh, how did i miss this? (more suns?)

more suns shining bright

i desire them, but they're so far, so very far out of sight

[bridge] i truly don't know the secrets of the world

(i only pretend)

and revel for a moment

before reality comes crashing down

[chorus] it's the tyndall effect

tyndall

tyndall

i want to feel it all

don't want to be a ken doll

tyndall

tyndall

[outro] it's too much to handle

i steal stars and trap them in a bottle (in a bottle)

i hoard them (hoard them), afraid they'll runaway

slip away, slip away

out of my mind

i can't burn their memory into my brain

(into my brain)

(into my brain)
