cosima - to build a house lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
while you were gone i washed all the windows
so i could get a better view of your return
while you were gone i changed all the bed sheets
so i could lie without the anger as i turn
i reset the clocks so i could forgive you for being late
but the moment they stop is the moment you tell me to have some faith

[chorus]
to build a house on quicksand
that’s what you’re asking me to do
to give you the heart you’ve broken
how can that feel alright to you?

[verse 2]
in the end, i let the windows get dirty
i couldn’t stand to see your absence through the gl-ss
and in the end, i learned to sleep with the light off
so tired from giving sp-ce to shadows of the past
i used to reset the clocks so i could forgive you for being late
then the moment i stop is the moment you tell me to have some faith

[chorus]
to build a house on quick sand
that’s what you’re asking me to do
to give you the heart you’ve broken
how can that feel alright to you?

[verse 3]
do i wait for you?
does that comfort me?
do i see you through?
or do i walk on by?
can i fl1ck the switch?
and forget your name?
do i crawl right back
when i know that there’s no safety in your arms?

[chorus]
to build a house on quick sand
that’s what your asking me to do
to give you the heart you’ve broken
how can that feel alright to you?

[outro]
how can that feel alright
how can that feel alright
how can that feel alright to you?
