aunt marleen's (live) Lyrics

If my walls were made of windows

Like the ones at Aunt Marleen′s

You'd catch a glimpse of everything inside

I′d give a little glance

And you'd know what it means

There'd be no place for anything to hide

And some would stop and stare and scratch their chin

At the girl whose walls let people see right in

But they don′t understand the way it′s been

Some doors open and some close

When your walls are made of windows

If my walls were made of windows

Like the ones at Aunt Marleen's

The weather would affect the way I looked

I′m pretty in the rain

My tone goes well with greens

I shine in sun but excess means I'm cooked

And some would stop and stare and scratch their chin

At the girl whose walls let people see right in

But they don′t understand the way it's been

Some doors open and some close

When your walls are made of windows

If my walls were made of windows

Like the ones at Aunt Marleen′s

My soul would be exposed to passersby

The fears I'll die alone

The echoes of my teens

The times I couldn't cry and don′t know why

And some would stop and stare and scratch their chin

At the girl whose walls let people see right in

But they don′t understand the way it's been

Some doors open and some close

When your walls are made of windows
