We stood by the city
And watched it fall
Building by build
You made the call
I wasn't good enough then
I'm not good enough
You wrapped your arms around me
And the city fell down
All we were
Was all we ever are
And I'm writing to you
I can't even call
I don't know who you are
I can guess at your name
You left blood on the window
But it's all the same.
Happy for once
But dead for awhile
Did you catch all these wishes
In your crooked smile?
I'll never know.

Face.
I can't see your face
Or hear your voice
it's buried down there
With some bright
Something new.
I can see your finger nails
The corner of your jaw bone
A crooked tooth.
I can't see anymore than that.
And it scares me.
Right down
to the glass wall.
That was put up.
Or hear your voice
it's buried down there
With some bright
Something new.
I can see your finger nails
The corner of your jaw bone
A crooked tooth.
I can't see anymore than that.
And it scares me.
Right down
to the glass wall.
That was put up.
