lyrics

Look closely and see a window in my heart.
It betrays my smile and shows all the world
The empty room left there by you.
I tried everything to keep you there,
But someone let you out
While I was sleeping. They locked it up
And threw the key out behind you.
Now you see me only
Through a window in my heart.

Think twice babe about this window in my heart.
Don’t look too closely at the many
Sparkling, enticing snares left there for you.
I’ll try anything to get you there.
But not for long, at least
Not as long as I’d made you think.
Come with me, move along, and
Now you see me only
Through a window in my heart.

The curtains were drawn in this window in my heart.
I had ambitions, I dreamed dreams for one,
Never for two,
Then I met you.
You tried everything to meet me there.
And I said no to love.
You said no, too, then I dreamed a door.
You came back and you walked through, and
Now you see all the world
Through a window in my heart.

On The Charm of Abstraction, Lanahan abandons guitar for mesmerizing synths, intricately programmed beats, imaginative sampling, and occasional rhymes. Even with a new sound, his core songwriting voice--“melodic and lyrical invention,” “chilling chord progressions,” “rare honesty and power"- remains. ... more
