Why Don't We Just Build A Cathedral

You are the curtains to my hollow eyes 
 The dust dances in the sunlight 
 But it’s only temporary they’ll subside 

 I hold potential in my weathered hands 
 The grains are slipping through my fingers 
 I told you I’m not easy to surprise 

 We watched the divers diving off the pier 
 The moon reflected in the seaside 
 Remember how you looked at me that night 

 I think it’s strange that we don’t talk no more 
 You’ve turned into a stranger 
 But stranger things have happened in my life 

 Your [bad word] to mine 
 [bad word] consumes me 
 Say you’ll stay 
 My fingers lose their grip 
 This chasm’s never ending 
 Say you’ll stay 

 And if you need someone to be there 

 My imperfections they reflect in you 
 I’m just looking for an answer 
 But you can answer this on your own time 
 I’m always waiting, I’m always waiting for you 
 To make up your mind 

 Your [bad word] to mine 
 [bad word] consumes me 
 Say you’ll stay 
 My fingers lose their grip 
 This chasm’s never ending 
 Say you’ll stay 

 Are you aware of the fact 
 When you cry 
 dozen angels die 
 And all the time we spent apart it strengthens my resolve to start again 
 Somewhere new 

 Your [bad word] to mine 
 [bad word] consumes me 
 Say you’ll stay 
 My fingers lose their grip 
 This chasm’s never ending 
 Say you’ll stay 

 Are you aware of the fact 
 When you dance 
 Your smile reveals itself 
 And all the time we spent apart it strengthens my resolve to start again 
 Somewhere new
