The Arcade Fire Windowsill Lyrics

I don't wanna hear the noises on tv
I don't want the salesman coming after me
I don't wanna live in my father's house no more

I don't want it faster, I dont want it free
I don't wanna show you what they've 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've done to you
I don't wanna live in my father's house no more

Because the tide is high
And its 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 salesman knocking at the door
I don't wanna live in America no more

Because the tide is high
And its 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 kickin' up sparks to set the flames free
The windows are locked now, so what'll it be?
A house on fire, 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
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
