lyrics

The first thing I did when I was woken
Was broke the corner off the clouds
Looking out my window
I got displaced in the crowd

All the sounds are shattered
Cannonballs of ill content
Smash the silence he was building
As a makeshift supplement

Cause all I know
Is the weather is changing outside
Cause all I know
Is that I’m empty alive

No waves upon the high seas
All the pirates hang their heads
And Neptune weeps a coral reef
Was the last words that he said

Cause all I know
Is the weather is changing inside
Cause all I know
Is that I’m empty alive

Well sometimes the equation
Is more than the sum of its parts
And I swore the last time I looked into you
I saw your broken parts
Scattered in the dark

I woke up inside a desert
I spoke up towards the sky
I tied a rope of sand around my ankle
To pull me through to the other side

Cause all I know
Is the weather is changing outside
Cause all I know
Is that I’m empty alive

And the pinnacle of decision
Is in the precision of its parts
And the last time I let you looked into me
I showed you my broken heart
Showed you were it came apart
