Well our hopes sometimes unhinge,
By a dread nightmare that closes in to peek
At the one who doesn't know
What's just outside.
Looking in, it is unmoved,
By the weakness that it sees inside the man;
And I find not many tears,
Find not many tears to help me hide.
CHORUS ✤
Twenty cars outside the window.
None of them here yesterday.
Everyone just says they're sorry,
And there's twenty cars to drive you away.
I don't mean to be unkind,
But more than one is feeling like a crowd;
Closing in, pressing down,
Unsettled loud.
It is unsure that no ones thinks
There's a selfishness that draws me out alone;
But I find not many words,
Find not many words that make me proud.
CHORUS ✤
