[Verse]
I saw a flicker through the blinds last night
A shadow twisting in the pale moonlight
They spun like a top with moves unknown
Breaking rhythms in a world of their own
[Verse 2]
Tweaker tweaker on the street near nine
Their eyes were glowing like a neon sign
The air was thick but the laughter flowed
Watching chaos as the midnight glowed
[Chorus]
Through the blinds the world seemed strange
A carnival tied up in a glass-paned frame
I peeked once more it made me grin
Captured in the madness of the whirl within
[Verse 3]
Their dance was rough like a fractured dream
A jagged ballet beneath a streetlamp beam
Their laughter broke like shards of glass
Echoing rhythms that refused to pass
[Bridge]
What's the world but a giant stage
A flicker of life in a little cage
Through the blinds where the wild ones stroll
They’re losing control and finding their soul
[Chorus]
Through the blinds the world seemed strange
A carnival tied up in a glass-paned frame
I peeked once more it made me grin
Captured in the madness of the whirl within
