paroles de chanson Skylights - Hideout

Through my reflection on a glass
Filled with water from your sink
I see your shadow growing deeper
With every sip you drink
And I look through the gaze that you give
Through the glass pressed on your lips
Well I know that you are always watching
Even when nobody's watching
And the calm that surrounds
The breath leaving your mouth
Could build a home inside the city
Where I'm safe enough to talk
About when Dad was out at some other lady's house
Mom was locked up in her room
Talking to her blue telephone
Down in the yard, I was sitting in the dark
When some lights left from the sky
Offering to take me home, take me home

Mom helped me up and got me in the house
And said darling your head is bleeding
I was no longer a child and I felt quite awake now
And the chair I'm sitting in, it felt rough against my skin
I looked down upon these hands, tried to recognize these hands
On these pictures on the wall or any other people in them
So mom's off to call a doctor and I'm left in front of the tv

Alright
Screen was black and white
The static was fighting for its life
Through the buzz I thought I saw face staring back at me
I called for mom, but she was still on the phone
So I leaned into the haze and fell for days, and days, and days, and days
Now wrapped in a calm that does keep me --------
I can now deduce the truth that I found through solitude
While I'm down in the yard and I'm sitting in the dark
There's a light behind your eyes that lets me know I am home
I am home
I am home
