lyrics

The glow of streetlamps is sickeningly soft against my skin.
My eyes close, my breath slows, and I feel ready to fall.
I’m just worried my sin

Chorus: Will anger the gods,
And tear down the skies,
And burn all the wolves,
With their absent minded "Why's,"
To throw rocks at her window,
Throwing Rocks at Your Window.

They crunch like bones against the sill, I hear the door open,
I re-think, think “Go around the front and wipe the tears from her eyes!”
“And impress her with my cleverest disguise, till I can show her who I am!”
I think “Oh my God, how her lips on mine would..." (Chorus)

But then she was gone,
And I was left to choke on my song.
As the wind grew cold and the excitement molded, I walked home,
I knew it, I knew this redemption would... (Chorus again!)
