Derelict Lyrics

Covering your windows so no-one ever sees you

You hide behind the curtains in the dark

Try to light a fire for comfort you are seeking

Afraid that too much daylight leaves its mark

Once inside the winter when colder nights surround you

I listened to the silence of the walls

I heard them talk about me and so I had to listen

And then maybe it wasn't me at all

The air is damp and chilling in the confines of your prison

The dripping tap will turn your mind

And when you hear the wind blow you shiver by the window

And try to fix the broken blind

I hear your voice at midnight begging for solution

But I can only tell you what I see

You know I'd like to help you but the answers to your question

Lie somewhere deep inside you, not in me

The air is damp and chilling in the confines of your prison

The dripping tap will turn your mind

And when you hear the wind blow you shiver by the window

And try to fix the broken blind

And when you hear the wind blow you shiver by the window

And try to fix the broken blind
