Marry Waterson, Emily Barker - A Window to Other Ways Lyrics

A window to other ways
A first impression, gained
I like to classify all the passerbys by eye
I'm a fly on a wall is all

A window to other ways
holds my gaze in cafes
I will rate and grade while my poker face surveys
I'm a lone ghost taking notes

for an amateur social science, spying happily in silence
decoding clues from jewellery and shoes, souvenirs and tattoos
See you race for the train, hide from the rain, from a balcony, I'm entertained
This birds eye view pigeonholes you in a team hat and a tracksuit

A window to other ways
The slant of your shoulder narrates
your emotional pain, again and again betrayed
I'm a fly on a wall is all
I'm a lone ghost taking notes
