Arcade Fire - Broken Window lyrics

Deep in the past, far in the future time Deep in the past, far in the future time Just 'cause no one saw you, that don't mean it ain't a crime They say they know me but they only know my name They say they know me but they only know my name They're through asking me questions, I ain't gonna learn to sing If they want it they can take it, they don't need no reason why If they want it they can take it, they don't need no reason why The night they took you from me I saw the broken window and I cried And I cried And I cried And I cried And I cried They bound my eyes and they bound my hands They bound my eyes and they bound my hands Where they're gonna take me now? No one understands They say they know me but they only know my name They say they know me but they only know my name They're through asking me questions, I ain't gonna learn to sing Lay their hands upon me now, it's midnight blue Lay their hands upon me now, it's midnight blue They didn't know me and they didn't know you, no, no. Now reduced to hide in the dark when they came for you I gained the world but I lost your trust I gained the world but I lost your trust They throw their money at you, it ain't easy to adjust Come out, and put your hands on your head I said come out, and put your hands on your head Come and join the rest of us, we are already dead If they want it they can take it, they don't need no reason why If they want it they can take it, they don't need no reason why The night they took you from me I saw the broken window and I cried I cried I cried I cried I cried Woe unto them if they touch a hair on your head Woe unto them if they touch a hair on your head You're gonna join the rest of us, we are already dead They won the battle, but the war is through They won the battle, but the war is through They didn't know me and they didn't know you, no, no Now reduced just to knock in the dark when they came for you. You You You You You Oh, you
