Speed the Collapse |
| All the way from where we came |
| Built a mansion in a day |
| Distant lightning, thunder claps |
| Watched our neighbor’s house collapse |
| Looked the other way |
| And then the storm was overhead |
| All the oceans boiled and rivers bled |
| We auctioned off our memories |
| In the absence of a breeze |
| Scatter what remains |
| Scatter what remains! |
| Pushed away, I’m pulled toward |
| A comedown of revolving doors |
| Every warning we ignored |
| Drifting in from distant shores |
| The wind presents a change of course |
| A second reckoning of sorts |
| We were wasted waiting for |
| A comedown of revolving doors |
| Fate don’t fail me now |
| And when the days that followed past |
| In another mansion built to last |
| From our window we could see |
| Only possibilities |
| Down the road and back |
| But, then the storm returned for more |
| In a comedown of revolving doors |
| Auctioned off our memories |
| In the absence of a breeze |
| Scatter what remains |
| Scatter what remains! |
| Pushed away, I’m pulled toward |
| A comedown of revolving doors |
| Every warning we ignored |
| Drifting in from distant shores |
| The wind presents a change of course |
| A second reckoning of sorts |
| We were wasted waiting for |
| A comedown of revolving doors |
| Fate don’t fail me now |
| Fate don’t fail me now |
| Fate don’t fail me now |
| Fate don’t fail me now |
