We'll look back and remember the dreams we built
The thin air at the heights of the mountaintops we felt
The best made plans that we held with broken hands
I am the fire that burns everything I touch
We'll light this city with the flames from all the bridges we've burned
This is so monumental. We'll build and make and plan to break
A red crescendo for denials sake
This violence, you are my color palette
Never forget the clouds, the falling of the sky, the current, the undertow
And I can't shake this. I'll never shake this; the all I know, the who I am
We are the walking broken; we are the beaten down
We are the walking broken, who they said we were
This is so monumental. We'll build and make and plan to break
A red crescendo for denials sake
This violence, you are my color palette
Are my veins as cold as autumn?
A pulse that drops like orange leaves
Cold air, pale skin
What will collapse first these old brick monuments or me?
