Looking through your window, a million miles from me
My ears are bleeding from the silence, echoing like rain
I cannot see, leaping from your window, the fall
To set me free. A leap of faith is all I ask. Remove
Myself from all that used to be. Now I'm here
for all to see, everything torn out of me, too
Late to drown in all my doubt. Too much too
Late to sort things out: when the clock is
Ticking. A twisted face I see, my sight is blinded
By the darkness, it doesn't mean a fucking thing
To me, turning from my window. Nothing phases me
I built this perfect little hellhole. It seems to
Be the perfect place for me, now I'm here for
All to see. Everything torn out of me, too late
To drown in all my doubt too much too late to
Sort things out

    My Interpretation
    I think this song is about someone who\'s depressed & fantasizing about committing suicide, about leaping out of a window and having all of themselves then put out on display for all to see.

    hmm lets see... the guy is so depressed about people ripping him apart from the inside out about something, so he's about to comit suicide when he turns from the window and desides that those people can't do crap to him. this is me, get the hell over it. a VERY inspirational song to me.

    Looking through your window, a million miles from me My ears are bleeding from the silence, echoing like rain I cannot see --obviously saying that the silence of having this thing bottled up in him is beating him up from the inside out... leaping from your window, the fall To set me free. A leap of faith is all I ask. Remove Myself from all that used to be. --Contemplating suicide by jumping out a window Now I'm here for all to see, everything torn out of me, too Late to drown in all my doubt. Too much too Late to sort things out --him shouting out about this thing, and saying it's too late to be doubtful, and it's too late to sort what he's already said when the clock is Ticking. A twisted face I see, my sight is blinded By the darkness, it doesn't mean a fucking thing To me --difficult... but I beleive the first line is saying that time is his enemy, sight blinded by darkness a reference to a sort of blinding depression... and he's saying all that doesn't mean anything to him. turning from my window. Nothing phases me I built this perfect little hellhole. It seems to Be the perfect place for me -- Turning away from the window, finally realising that nothing anyone can say can stop him.... I donno.. confusing in parts but I think thats the main jist of it all...

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
