Lyrics

cold feet wake me up
and make me miss
the way it used to be
the way you and me
had the world, limitless and free

in this heaven we have built
we saw we had
the world on a string
doesn't mean a thing
when the fire, around, is burning

is the roof open
or on its way down?
the walls are not to lean on
in this facsimile town

lie awake and listen to
the earthquake shake me
down to the core
I still wanted more
than the world offered me before

jealous rain beat down
and raise a flood to take me
higher than I’ve been
the world has ever seen
but I’m scared of what it all could mean

is the roof open
am I on my way down?
the walls are not to lean on
in this facsimile town
