    As I Sat Sadly by Her Side
    Nick Cave
    by kexianda
    As I sat sadly by her side
    At the window, through the glass
    She stroked a kitten in her lap
    And we watched the world as it fell past
    Softly she spoke these words to me
    And with brand new eyes, open wide
    We pressed our faces to the glass
    As I sat sadly by her side

    She said, "Father, mother, sister, brother,
    Uncle, aunt, nephew, niece,
    Soldier, sailor, physician, labourer,
    Actor, scientist, mechanic, priest
    Earth and moon and sun and stars
    Planets and comets with tails blazing
    All are there forever falling
    Falling lovely and amazing"

    Then she smiled and turned to me
    And waited for me to reply
    Her hair was falling down her shoulders
    As I sat sadly by her side

    As I sat sadly by her side
    The kitten she did gently pass
    Over to me and again we pressed
    Our different faces to the glass
    "That may be very well", I said
    "But watch the one falling in the street
    See him gesture to his neighbours
    See him trampled beneath their feet
    All outward motion connects to nothing
    For each is concerned with their immediate need
    Witness the man reaching up from the gutter
    See the other one stumbling on who can not see"

    With trembling hand I turned toward her
    And pushed the hair out of her eyes
    The kitten jumped back to her lap
    As I sat sadly by her side

    Then she drew the curtains down
    And said, "When will you ever learn
    That what happens there beyond the glass
    Is simply none of your concern?
    God has given you but one heart
    You are not a home for the hearts of your brothers

    And God does not care for your benevolence
    Anymore than he cares for the lack of it in others
    Nor does he care for you to sit
    At windows in judgement of the world He created
    While sorrows pile up around you
    Ugly, useless and over-inflated"

    At which she turned her head away
    Great tears leaping from her eyes
    I could not wipe the smile from my face
    As I sat sadly by her side
    As I sat sadly by her side
    As I sat sadly by her side
    As I sat sadly by her side
    As I sat sadly by her side
