Arcade Fire - Windowsill lyrics

[Arcade Fire - Windowsill lyrics]

I don't wanna hear the noises on TV
I don't want the salesmen coming after me
I don't wanna live in my
Father's house no more
I don't want it faster, I don't want it free
I don't wanna show you what
They've done to me i don't wanna live in my
Father's house no more
I don't wanna choose black or blue
I don't wanna see what they've done to you
I don't wanna live in my
Father's house no more

Because the tide is high
And it's rising still
And I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna give 'em my name and address
I don't wanna see what happens next
I don't wanna live in my
Father's house no more
I don't wanna live with my father's debt
You can't forgive what you can't forget
I don't wanna live in my
Father's house no more
I don't wanna fight in a holy war
I don't want the salesmen knocking at my door
I don't wanna live in America no more

Because the tide is high
And it's rising still
And I don't want to see it at my windowsill
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
I don't want to see it at my windowsill

MTV, what have you done to me?
Save my soul, set me free
Set me free, what have you done to me?
I can't breathe, I can't see
World War I I I, when are you coming for me?
Been kicking up sparks to set the flames free
The windows are locked now, so what'll it be?
A house on fire, or the rising sea?
Why is the night so still?
Why did I take the pill?
Because I don't want to see
It at my windowsill

I don't want to see it at my windowsill
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
(Don't want to see it at my windowsill)
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
(Don't want to see it at my windowsill)
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
(Don't want to see it at my)
(Don't want to see it at my windowsill)
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
(Don't want to see it at my windowsill)
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
(Don't want to see it at my windowsill)
I don't want to see it at my windowsill
