Big Buildings Songtext
von Vowel

i awoke once more to copper.
tints of green shade the room like your only dress.
now you′re gone, off to the store, or for good,
but these things change a lot these days. (oh,
you're gone again, and this time for good, but everything′s changed.)
and your off-white frame fades into the moonlight seamlessly.
your silhouette haunts me from a
distance, and to your cold touch, i woke.
eyes stuck together; the view of your bedside.
don't lift a finger,
your bed's already been made by the setting sun and season′s end.
we all lie with our fate; something accessible at the time. champagne shot onto a wall by a hand dashed
against the rafters, like a poem on fire for a friend.
i was on my mountain,
i wish i cared that they were all over you at the fire.
help me to hold on, or pry off my fingers one by one, i wish i cared.
i′m sifting through what's not mine.
i sat there in silence and grew more distrait,
and it feel′s like last last winter, but everything's changed.
and i′m wasting away; another faded shade of grey.
in my dreams you spoke of exile and
untouched memories too tattered to carry home.
