There is a cat in the window, Of the house of my lover. Well she sleeps there alone now, Or perhaps with another. Oh, I try not to think about that. I try not to think at all. I get cocaine from a girl I met, And my brother buys me alcohol. And I stay up all night walking through these, Houses I have grown to hate, And my parents ask if I'm all right. I say "I've just been staying up too late". I need to sleep. I need to do something, To get this awful weight up off my chest, And keep her pretty ghost from chasing, Me... (From chasing me....) So, you say there are spaces, Open and wide. Believe me there's days, Longer than nights. And you will be happy the minute you try... But you don't try. No you don't try. And you speak of a fever, That burns you inside. As you explain to your mother, How you wanted to die. So she kisses your fingers, Says "My Darling but why? When there is so much more... There is so much more..." Do you know there are spaces, Open and wide. Oh believe me, there's days, Longer than nights. And you will be happy, If only you'd try. Oh won't you try, Oh won't you try...
I listened to this song a lot when I was maybe 14. Now, listening to it again at 20, the lyrics have taken on a very different meaning for me. I liked the song at 14, but didn't have the life experience to really appreciate it. I know not that much time has elapsed & that I'm still pretty young, but I'm glad to connect to music like this :)

Best song I've ever heard. I searched for this for a good hour and a half. I was so happy to. I got this album back when it came out and lost it that this song was always so intense and so meaningful to me thank you for posting it.
It doesn't matter if others don't like the music you do; your opinion shouldn't be swayed by anyone else. I don't know why everyone is upset at that "Sara" person, especially over a post that was obviously written just to upset people. Just listen to music that you like, and don't listen to music that you don't like. There's no reason to be ass holes to each other, either.
Time to say BYE Alicia. Stay strong. There’s so much more. This is coming from a 30 year old who was heartbroken at 20. And now I’m married to the love of my life.
