lyrics

All dressed up and set to go
out to a place with things we've never sown
(but we wanted them all).

I'd fuck you, and you'd abide--
but something that was resting in your eyes
was too much. It tore me up.

You saw the truth behind our size:
our shadows loom, but it was just the sun
going down, casting long.

I was not equipped to hide
the feelings that you conjured in my bones
far away from my own.

Went back to my former home,
built newer buildings out of the same stone.
It was cheap; not our own.

Souvenirs that live inside
are shadowed by the trinkets we hold up
(they're a drop in the cup).

Memories that ebb and flow
from histories much larger than my own
(wires crossed, flaring up).

And I'll take you back to Greece and Rome;
I'll whore out the Rosetta Stone.
Take a flash,
cause it's not coming back.
