"Windowsill"

I don't wannna hear the noises on TV

I don't want the salesmen coming after me

I don't wanna live in my father's house no more

I don't want it faster, I don't want it free

I don't wanna show you what they done to me

I don't wanna live in my father's house no more

I don't wanna choose black or blue

I don't wanna see what they done to you

I don't wanna live in my father's house no more

Because the tide is high

And it's rising still

And I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna give 'em my name and address

I don't wanna see what happens next

I don't wanna live in my father's house no more

I don't wanna live with my father's debt

You can't forgive what you can't forget

I don't wanna live in my father's house no more

I don't wanna fight in a holy war

I don't want the salesmen knocking at my door

I don't wanna live in America no more

Because the tide is high

And it's rising still

And I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

MTV, what have you done to me?

Save my soul, set me free

Set me free, what have you done to me?

I can't breathe, I can't see

World War III, when are you coming for me?

Been kicking up sparks, we set the flames free

The windows are locked now, so what'll it be?

A house on fire or a rising sea?

Why is the night so still?

Why did I take the pill?

Because I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill

I don't wanna see it at my windowsill
