Wallflowers

Wallflowers - I AM A BUILDING lyrics

rate me

I'm here by my window

I am waiting for your parade

I will salute you

From above the crowd

As you make your way

You won the battle

You've won the war

I admit it now

I could not give any more

My condition is your reward

I am a building

Here without doors

The altitude is now

Getting to me

As they applaud you

On the boulevard

The whole valley looks like

Someone's body

And all the people look like

Little scars

This day is taking

Forever

I will never say

Never say never again

The flesh around me

is only pretend

Return to sender

Every letter

That is yours

I am sure

That I am a building

Here without doors

Fire blazing

On the overpass

Cattle grazing

In fields of dead grass

Last summer was earthquake weather

By November

This too should have passed

I am not moving

I am landlocked

I am looking through

A thousand windows spread across

A thousand floors

There in a landfill

Where Eden was before

But not anymore

I am a building

Here without doors

Did you see me waving to you from above

Things are looking clear now

My eyes are wide enough to see the way a sniper does

Behind the barrel of a good gun

For worse or better

I surrender

It may not matter

But I'm sadder than you'll ever know

I am your inferno

Here all in yellow

With embers blowing north

No sense in returning

I'm not worried anymore

I am a building

That is here without doors

I am a building

That is here without doors
