Hiraeth |
| the whole world lives inside my house |
| but I haven’t seen anyone in a while |
| shut my eyes as I walk across the street |
| to show that |
| I have faith in me |
| I have faith in me |
| I have faith in me |
| I have faith in me |
| we have all tried building houses before |
| watched them crumble in the scores |
| broken the hammers and worn out the saws |
| we only own what we buy, but when you’re old and alone that’s nothing at all |
| we only reap what we sow, but when you’re dust, so is your crop |
| were all hiding in half a bottle |
| full when the struggle started |
| empty, when the battles over. |
| mine’s now empty but I feel far from battle-worn |
| just torn |
| bursting at the seams |
| never have I seen this light of day |
| as we take away from our dreams and change |
| I’m planning the next great escape |
| one where I can look myself in the face |
| the house we built is without a single crooked nail |
| what you should have done is not just a missed oppurtunity |
| but a disease that lingers |
| linger to long and it becomes an infected thorn |
| to many thorns amounts to a |
| life |
| spent |
| counting |
| them |
| all |
| I’m planning the next great escape |
| we have all tried building houses before |
| watched them crumble in the scores |
| broken the hammers and worn out the saws |
| we only own what we buy, when you’re old and alone thats nothing at all |
| we only reap what we sow, when you’re dust, so is your crop |
