FAT FREDDY'S DROP
- This Room Lyrics / with translationsI sit and watch you from my window,
Giving yourself away,
You've been working hard all day
I see the ground catch at your feet,
I see the sweet signs of defeat,
Like you're beaten but you feel no pain
And then you turn to me instinctively,
Checking if you're alone,
Like a reflex from my guilty mind
I fall away into the background,
Like a shadow on the wall,
To leave you with your peace of mind
I watch from my window up high,
All alone in this room,
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
I think it’s time that I changed my views
Why did you choose my way?
Why did you come down this lonely street?
Was it to meet me?
Was it to tangle with the roots?
They sound so sweet
Sweeter than gold,
Sweeter than pain,
Sweeter than honey
[….. money]
Walking along this lonely street,
Someone I'd like to meet,
Someone I'd like to know
[ ….. so]
But oh so spiritual the sound that sounds like waterfalls
The way [ ….. ]
Changing my view of you everyday
I watch from my window up high,
All alone in this room,
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
I think it’s time that I changed my views (x5)
Giving yourself away,
You've been working hard all day
I see the ground catch at your feet,
I see the sweet signs of defeat,
Like you're beaten but you feel no pain
And then you turn to me instinctively,
Checking if you're alone,
Like a reflex from my guilty mind
I fall away into the background,
Like a shadow on the wall,
To leave you with your peace of mind
I watch from my window up high,
All alone in this room,
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
I think it’s time that I changed my views
Why did you choose my way?
Was it to meet me?
Was it to tangle with the roots?
They sound so sweet
Sweeter than gold,
Sweeter than pain,
Sweeter than honey
[….. money]
Walking along this lonely street,
Someone I'd like to meet,
Someone I'd like to know
[ ….. so]
But oh so spiritual the sound that sounds like waterfalls
The way [ ….. ]
Changing my view of you everyday
I watch from my window up high,
All alone in this room,
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
I think it’s time that I changed my views (x5)
