Lyrics:


air grabs me leads me down
cushions my fall
chin up stand tall
i walk for miles in a
checkerboard hall
in a hurry to nowhere at all


a garden of mannequins
with rose petal eyes
it’s no surprise
i shy from their touch
or get covered in flies
they do love the taste of demise


lost here in the white noise
of this empty space
time is ticking by
i can’t keep up this pace


lost between skyscrapes
of cardboard and glue
poke my head through
join secret meetings
to give me a clue
they said there’s no helping you


lost here in the white noise
of this empty space
time is ticking by
i can’t keep up this pace
x2


before the tall towers
in silken cloud dress
this is my test
i’ll go through the rain gates
and suffer the rest
trust only this heart in my chest
