Lyrics The Scope of All of This Rebuilding - The Hotelier

The Scope of All of This Rebuilding

You cut our ropes, left the umbilical
And now I carry around this weight of broken hope
And I can’t retrace and I lost my hold
And blame myself 'cause that is all I’ve ever known
And your face shows doubt
(When your head feels the wake of the sorrow)
Swore to me that you could live without
(Then the beg turns to take turns to borrow)
Help me down, I just want this out
(When you bend, when you break, when you follow)
So you cut me out
Then you cut our ropes, left the umbilical
And now I’m lost and I can’t take this path back home
Send a birthday card, leave a one-way note
I lied, I’m sorry, this isn’t easy, I don’t know
And you’d ask me to «open your walls to this»
But I’m scared, fingers broken
And ill-prepared to let this drag out
When you forgot the words to our song
When you can’t remember names, it’s been too long
When you stopped asking what was wrong
All the pressure built up it was too strong
(I can’t make this better
It fell out of my hands because
I just wasn’t built to hold on)
And I can’t remember names its been too long
And I can’t find your face in the crowd
I made a promise, said my eyes would stay shut
Through something called the scope of all of this rebuilding
I broke when I entered, displaced from the center
I can’t find my way around this
My wounds healed while my fingers fixed
