lyrics

Tiny Windows

He was a tall man, picturesque
Soldiers’ will to freedom’s song
He held his woman close to his chest
Shot through both hips before too long

Like watchtowers, hills rose around
He never did submit to fear
Moved his focus to the higher ground
He had a vision – brutal and clear

Even through these tiny windows
How bright the light does shine
But even fighting for each other
In battle, we are blind

It’s a narrow road they’ll be coming down
There’s a devil to be paid
I’ll do everything I can
But there’s nothing I can do today

To him man mattered more than The State
His conviction never dim
Bloody Chamberlain, he had his faith
Six horses blown from under him

Even through these tiny windows
How bright the light does shine
Even fighting for each other
In battle, we are blind

Even killing for your brother
A war, a wound in time
But when you’re reaching for your lover
A moment that’s sublime

Go beyond these tiny windows
Light inside these tiny windows
Even through these tiny windows
Even through these tiny windows

about

The Bushwick Book Club Brooklyn, New York

We started in January 2009 playing songs written in response to Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions. We haven't stopped since. We've written & performed songs inspired by everything from "On The Origin of Species" to Dr. Seuss to Raymond Carver. There are BBCs popping up nationwide now. Bushwick Book Club Seattle started in 2010 & is run by Geoff Larson. Our nerdy dare-devilry knows no bounds. ... more
