Buildings

i dreamed again there were no buildings
and we were in a worn out clearing
and i could feel you started talking
the wind picked up and we went walking
i didn’t care cos we weren’t scoring
it didn’t mean i was withdrawing
and on the air it felt like morning
i heard you breathing and i’ll keep falling
i dreamed again there were no buildings
i dreamed again
i dreamed again there were no buildings
i dreamed again

Chorus
02:37
|
|||
|
i fell into your web
i couldn’t pretend to complain
i tried to follow what you said
and i lost the way
in a chorus of you in a corner of my mind
it’s a chorus i knew it’s a chorus of you
it’s a chorus of you in a corner of my mind
it’s a chorus i knew in a place beside
you set the road i tread
but the footprints they’re all mind
and i use every single
step to deny
a chorus of you in a corner of my mind
it’s a chorus i knew it’s a chorus of you
it’s a chorus of you in a corner of my mind
it’s a chorus i knew in a place beside
in a chorus of you

Stray
02:34
|
|||
|
you call me stray
while you’re holding a mirage
it keeps you active, and you’re distracted
the shadows play
and so I step into their arms
we move like dancers avoiding chances
in the suburbs where the blinking lights don’t sleep
i step out in the hours that you retreat
and as i wait
to meet the cover of the night
it’s cinematic, like falling static
that you translate
but i’m a frequency below
the world’s advancing, on suburban dancing
in the suburbs where the blinking lights don’t sleep
i step out in the hours that you retreat
in the suburbs, by the blinking lights you sleep
you sleep

Dog

|
where do you run, run in your sleep?
i run back to my others four legs and teeth
and as we circle you call it dance
your rules will fade away we’ll have a chance
to move like we’d move, beyond the line
of suburban fortresses made to numb your mind
the wind in my ears intensifies
and it consumes me, the great outside
i know i’m dreaming, and dreams confuse
when you’re a place apart with different rules
and you can’t put out the little flame
that whispers softly to disobey
and move like we’d move, ben yond the line
of suburban fortresses made to numb your mind
the wind in my ears intensifies
and it consumes me, the great outside
i live between these lands in an imaginary time
and catapult between them but my home’s on your side

Fire
01:36
|
|||
|
it’s getting louder now i know you feel it
we’re cutting through the signs
we’ll travel further the daylight’s on your side
if you listen

Bird
03:44
|

the lost bird was staring out at the place we used to stay
it’s different, the city changed so much, i wanted to say
the sky felt, so big i couldn’t breathe
and high above the trees, beneath the jets
it stretches, this greying land of thieves
their shiny new machines that we call home
the shade’s bare, the trees have all got wires, and the cranes are crowding in
their metal arms keep reaching for the sky, but they can’t fly
the sky felt, so big i couldn’t breathe
we’re high above the trees, beneath the jets
it stretches, this greying land of thieves
their shiny new machines that we call home
and for the briefest time, i wasn’t in your world or mine, i never thought to wonder why
i heard the past misfire, the sky was low and i was high, it helps me navigate at night
the sky felt so big i couldn’t breathe

True
02:24
|
|||
|
i busted out and ran away
it seemed the only choice
while everything was burning anyway
to wait it out the dying flame
but when I looked around and
saw your shadow
i couldn’t disengage
cos it’s true I miss you
at the outskirts there’s more space
and every move can
bend the arc and redirect the plane
and dent the lumbering display
it’s never been my sight
it’s always what i couldn’t say
cos it’s true I miss you
cos it’s true I miss you

Echolocation
02:21
|
|||
|
you walk by here every day and never leave the ground
and i wonder why you never try to travel by the sound
while you wait for the echo to keep
you disorganised and further from sleep
where we collide
metal horses retire and you turn your lamps down
and i’d send my location but i think we see different ground
so i’ll wait for the echo to return
armed with maps full of sounds to unlearn
and wait for the night
on the road out of town, high above the ground
the machines seem so distant, i see every sound

Edge
01:54
|
|||
|
at the edge of the world i see you dancing
by electric signs that blink at their decline
at the edge of the world i see rules collapsing
and i wonder how you played pretend so long
at the edge of the world i see the sky retracting
and it always hits me as i’m trying to breathe
at the edge of the world the sea keeps calling
tossing wreckage back like it’s a final stand
at the edge of the world
