June Swoon - Passover

The world was right side up when I went to sleep last night
Now it's spilled out like a car crash, I'm a passerby
Once, my friend Jessie told me crazy's nothing
If I could work on being scared, I'd be all right

So I kept the windows fastened, tried to not think about it
Worry about parking and paying down my credit
Keep an ear out for anyone talking shit
And hope the spirit would pass over my door

My door

I got field notes from all the people I've been
They left me charts and graphs and affirmations
With my ancestors, they sing in a Greek chorus
Saying, "Here's the equation, kid
Let's see how you solve for X"

"Do you keep the windows fastened, try to not think about it
Do you create problems to avoid what's underneath 'em
Cover it all in plastic to keep yourself untouched
And pray the spirit would pass over your door"

"Your door"

I survived the death of God
By sheer will and counting sidewalk cracks
In an absence of my mind, I can only wait
For the wind to change

Change

Change

(A house with windows open)

For the wind to change

(A house with windows open)...

For the wind to change...

(A house with windows open)

For the wind to change
'Cause it always changes
