Buildings Like Mountains - Shakey Genes Lyrics

Wake up it's your birthday come on
1960 something or not
Turned on in the same place I sleep
Glad you noticed cause you wrote this

I've got Shakey Genes in my DNA and it's all on display the feeling is strange
Bolt by bolt my foundation will sway because you built me this way
Well I think you've made a mistake

You Were so Close

Our bodies are just dirty clothes discarded once they're filled up with holes
Bury them within the day and tell the others that we found them this way
But they'll all know but they'll pretend that they don't

I've got Shakey Genes in my DNA and it's all on display the feeling is strange
Bolt by bolt my foundation will sway because you built me this way
Well I think you've made a mistake

You were so close
You were so close
You were so close

Every little thing you can't control what's control
Every little thing you can't control will control you
While you were busy winning the god race a sculptor animated a face
And you were replaced you were erased
And the monuments that commemorate your past faded with the babies you'd draft
You can't blame us cause you made us

You were so close

I've got Shakey Genes in my DNA and it's all on display the feeling is strange
Bolt by bolt my foundation will sway because you built me this way
Well I think you've made a mistake
Bolt by bolt my foundation will sway because you built me this way
Well I think you've made a mistake

You were so close
