[Verse] The streetlamp casts a long and jagged shadow on the bricks I’ve spent a lifetime learning all the cruel and quiet tricks Of standing in the hallway while the golden door swings shut A cold and hollow feeling carving circles in my gut She walks right past my shoulder with a gaze for someone else Another heavy trophy for a dusty, crowded shelf I am the background actor in a film that never ends Always the one who listens, always the best of friends [Chorus] But the dice are loaded heavy and the wheel is fixed to spin I’m the stranger at the window looking at the feast within Never the name she whispers when the sun begins to rise Just the ghost of a reflection in her distant, shifting eyes The heart is but a vessel that is built to crack and leak When the words you long to offer are the ones you never speak Left in the cooling ashes while the fire starts to roar I’m the one who stands and watches from the threshold of the door [Bridge] The clock upon the mantelpiece is ticking out of time Searching for a reason or a rhythm or a rhyme To explain why every promise ends in a jagged piece of glass Watching every chance of lightning simply flicker out and pass I’ve memorized the map of every path she takes away Growing tired of the theater and the parts I have to play [Verse] I saw them in the garden where the lilies bend and sway She gave him every secret that I banked for a rainy day The architecture of my pride is crumbling to the floor I’ve felt this bitter wind blow through a thousand times before It isn’t that I’m invisible or hidden from the sight It’s the way she chooses someone else to keep away the night A heavy hand of silence settles down upon the street And I’m walking home alone on tired and aching feet [Chorus] But the dice are loaded heavy and the wheel is fixed to spin I’m the stranger at the window looking at the feast within Never the name she whispers when the sun begins to rise Just the ghost of a reflection in her distant, shifting eyes The heart is but a vessel that is built to crack and leak When the words you long to offer are the ones you never speak Left in the cooling ashes while the fire starts to roar I’m the one who stands and watches from the threshold of the door [Chorus] But the dice are loaded heavy and the wheel is fixed to spin I’m the stranger at the window looking at the feast within Never the name she whispers when the sun begins to rise Just the ghost of a reflection in her distant, shifting eyes The heart is but a vessel that is built to crack and leak When the words you long to offer are the ones you never speak Left in the cooling ashes while the fire starts to roar I’m the one who stands and watches from the threshold of the door
