lyrics

I wake up to the morning light
Of a cellphone screen that’s been plugged in all night
I scroll through the hour’s news
I choose to read what I believe

I’ve been hanging mirrors but I should be
Putting in new windows
I’ve been hanging mirrors but I should be
Putting in new windows

I sit down on the outbound train
Catch your image in the window pane
I don’t talk to you and you don’t talk to me
Silence is part of the cultural currency
But what if we’re thinking the same -
That I should’ve asked for your name?

I’ve been hanging mirrors but I should be
Putting in new windows
I’ve been hanging mirrors but I should be
Putting in new windows

Remember the days when our phones were on hooks?
Texts that we read were found mainly in books?
Then again, look how our vision expands
With the universe perched in the palms of our hands

I’ve been hanging mirrors but I should be
Putting in new windows
