Crack The Shutters

Looks like it's going to be one of those nights again. Nights where work piles up and goes nowhere. Nights when it gets real quiet, but on the inside of my head, those damn sounds are just as loud as they were the last time they were there.


Sigh.

But it's not a discussion on never-ending work or
the funny sounds in my head that interests me tonight.

At least I don't want it to be.

D-I-S-T-R-A-C-T-I-O-N.

Yeah, distraction. That's what I need.


Gotta find that something something to take my mind off things. Or to latch my mind onto other things. Like work. Or whatever. Either way, I gotta find that something something. Gotta find that something something. Gotta find that something something.


Sigh.

*twiddles thumbs*

All I need is a good song.


Artist: Snow Patrol
Song Title: Crack The Shutters


You cool your bed-warm hands
Down on the broken radiator
And when you lay them freezing on me
I mumble, "Can you wake me later?"
But I don't really want you to stop
And you know it so it doesn't stop you
You run your hands from my neck to my chest

[CHORUS]
Crack the shutters open wide, I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
Cause the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you

It's been minutes it's been days it's been all I will remember
Happy lost in your hair and the cold side of the pillow
Your hills and valleys are mapped by my intrepid fingers
And in a naked slumber, I dream all this again

[CHORUS]
Crack the shutters open wide, I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
Cause the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you

[CHORUS]
Crack the shutters open wide, I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
Cause the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you

would someone crack the shutters open wide for me
(For my own sanity – and privacy – there shall be no punctuations.)
