Lyrics:

I was staring out the window

The whole time he was talking to me

It was a filthy pane of glass

I couldn't get a clear view



As he went on and on

It wasn't the outside world I could see

Just the filthy pane that I was looking through



So I had to break the window

It just had to be

Better that I break the window

Than him or her or me



I was never focused on just one thing

My eyes got fixed when my mind got soft

It may looked like I'm concentrated on a very clear view



But I'm as good as asleep

I bet you didn't know

It takes a lot of it away if you do



So I had to break the window

It just had to be

Better that I break the window

Than him or her or me



So I had to break the window

It just had to be

Better that I break the window

Than him or her or me



Because the fact in fact

Whatever's in front of me is covering my view

So I can't see what I'm seeing in fact

I only see what I'm looking through



I had to break the window

It just had to be it was in my way

Better that I break the window

Then forget what I had to say



So again I've done the right thing

I was never worried about that

The answer's always been in clear view

But even when the window's clean

I still can't see for the fact

That when it's clean it's so clear

I can't tell what I'm looking through



So I had to break the window

It just had to be

Better that I break the window

Than him or her or me



I had to break the window

It just had to be it was in my way

Better that I break the window

Then forget what I had to say



I had to break the window

It was in my way

Better that I break a window

Then forget what I had to say



Or miss what I should see
