latticework

there is a garden outside (outside, outside)

i can see it

from here

the flowers are moving (moving, moving)

but i can't hear them

there is a window

somewhere beyond the wall

sometimes i stand here (stand here, stand here)

and look through it

sometimes i wonder

if somebody is looking back

i put my hand through the spaces

but my shoulder doesn't fit

i tried once

i don't remember why

there is nothing wrong

with staying here

nothing wrong

with looking

the sun comes through

in little pieces

and i like it that way

whole sunlight

is too bright

i can see the road

through the little squares

people come home

people leave

people become strangers

and then become strangers again

i don't need to follow them

i can see enough

there is a girl outside (outside, outside)

with flowers in her hair

she looks happy

or maybe (maybe, maybe)

she is only far away

i don't know

i think i used to want (want)

to go there

i think i used to want (want)

a lot of things

but the spaces are too small

and the wall is very quiet

so i'll stay here (stay here, stand here)

where nothing can reach me

where i can see everything

and nobody can see me

the garden is still there

the flowers are still moving

and i am still here

behind the...
