The Hotelier - An Introduction To The Album Şarkı Sözleri

Open the curtains
Singing birds tell me "tear the buildings down"
You felt blessed to receive their pleasant sound
Of things that break make you cringe inside yourself
There's a child counting stars in their time-out of their day
In the corners of their frame they are encased
In the losing of a grain of themselves
Pushed against the ebb and flow
Wave good-bye and watch it go

Well show me the honest/proper way
To disarm predatory gaze
That's sucking dry and never satiated
You've been misused
Been rewired
You're short-circuiting now
Just remember when you'd call me to come
Take a deep breath, and then jump
So fragile are bodies
So concave, work in self-destructive ways

Detaching from all of this
In physical pictures you remain
Spiral 'round yourself in figure-eight

Don't we all?
An existentialist recall
Turn in all dichotomies and truths that I gave
I felt wrong in many ways
It didn't heal
It just got harder everyday to be still
To be passing through the throes
In a daze
Feeling heavy
Feeling cold in my skin
In my hand-me-downs
I'm wearing everything thin
And the pills that you gave didn't do anything
I just slept for years on end

So if I call
Should I beg?
Because I'm desperate here
A couple steps from the edge
I can't seem to burn bright enough
I'm cold and I'm left alone
We're all alone
Grab a hold
I know I said to not. What the fuck do I know?
I had a chance to construct something beautiful and I choked
