Lyrics
[verse]
I've been stuck inside these four same walls
Watching shadows crawl along the halls
Nobody calls and nobody stops by
Just the kettle whistling its lonely sigh
[verse]
I don't need the world to understand
Just a friendly voice, a steady hand
Give me something simple, something slow
Give me anywhere that I can go
[chorus]
Take me over, coffee and the screen
Somewhere in between, a quiet scene
I don't need the crowd, I don't need the noise
Just a little comfort, just a little poise
[verse]
Stepped outside today and lost my nerve
Every stranger seemed a little too much to observe
Came back home and made another cup
Watched the static till the evening lit up
[chorus]
Take me over, coffee and the screen
Somewhere in between, a quiet scene
I don't need the crowd, I don't need the noise
Just a little comfort, just a little poise
[bridge]
Maybe one day I'll walk out that door
Further than I've gone before
Till then I'll sit here, warm and slow
Waiting for a courage I don't yet know
[chorus]
Take me over, coffee and the screen
Somewhere in between, a quiet scene
I don't need the crowd, I don't need the noise
Just a little comfort, just a little poise
