Alfian Sa'at - View from a Window (Simei St. 1, 11.22pm) lyrics

looking out at the next block at the curtains on the next block at the shadows opening cupboards and closing them, noiselessly at housewives washing dishes framed by socks on window grilles at wooden slots for air-cons at rushy holders for washing poles is to feel as if one is viewing a wall at a columbarium at ghosts behind plaques hunting for their souls in drawers, in woks in the television box is to laugh, a little sadly, because even gravestones have names.
