Windows

[Verse 1] You texted me in the morning, something simple, said you loved me and your job was fucking boring I said "ditto", asked about the weather- This plant don't have any windows Brain cloudy like they forecasting But we woke up optimistic feeling last night's orgasms You asked me how I felt, I said "I'm sick" Drank a half a fifth of Admiral Nelson's- the poor Captains You asked me if it ever get better Wasn't sure how to answer but I couldn't say never So, gave you a "maybe" - you reply with a sad face But when your life is from 26 years of bad breaks It's hard to be hopeful, hard to imagine or see anything change so Instead I wrote you, and told you everything would be okay [Hook] Now all I got's a dollar and my name And lately both are feeling worthless Its hard to hope without a window open I'm living broke but I'm not living broken [Verse 2] I texted my brother said "What the fuck is up?" He said he's working but other than its nothing much Told him I needed money He said "How fuckin' much?" "Just for a couple weeks, a couple hundred bucks" Soon as he told me yes, I thought about How embarrassing it is when feeling down and out So I apologized, I said "It's not alright You're my little brother, one day I'll make it right But I still need the money though" He responded with a "lol"- it isn't funny though Cause I don't know what the hell I'm doing Been doing this for so long it's feeling normal I think I relate with that caged bird That wanted to escape from this gray world When offered his chance to finally go, he decided to stay- Whats the point without hope? [Hook]
