about

"Bell-Shaped Window is a song about escape. In my travels I've met a lot of people desperate to leave whatever situation they are in. I hope I've played my part in convincing them to take the right kind of leap forward.

Tip of the hat to my pals in MG-Actiontown."

-- Brett Winterford

lyrics

LYRICS

Out my little bell-shaped window, the world is at a standstill.
Everything is peaceful.
No one in the stairwell kicking at the door, still screaming 'Go to Hell!'

If I concentrate.
If I could get through.
I'm about the ideal weight to catch the breeze and float off some place new.

Out my little bell-shaped window, I only see the future.
It's a better picture.
No one looks familiar.
No one you could love 'til it very-nearly kills you.

If I concentrate.
If I could get through.
I'm about the ideal weight to catch the breeze and float off some place new.

I won't fall.

I won't miss this architecture.
I sure won't miss this weather.
If I'm allowed one treasure to take with me wherever
Forever I will go with my little bell-shaped window.
