Cinder Town

Crying over spilt milk, I'm 17, yeah
Let's go back to a time we can breathe

'Cause I must say, and I must know
I'm in the artefacts, I'm in the afterglow
Freefalling from your secondhand memory
Missing out on everything that's right in front of me
Well the truth hurts, and my body too
I'm on the longest road, but calmly holding you
I'm calling god, he's the one who talks to me
Such a distance but on my network the calls are free
I can still see you, but you just see yourself
Maybe I'm the hardback dust encased upon your shelf
If I take this moment it'll be a remedy
Or maybe that's what I've convinced myself it means to me
I'd walk back for a second go

It's just a game
It's just a game

It's different this time, better than last time
Take up the lead role, please don't be a bore
Falling from your tree, where you taunted me
The clock is broken, so it's half past when?

It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, rusted metal town
It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, my broken cinder town

Crying over spilt milk, I'm 17, yeah
Let's go back to a time we can breathe
'Cause I must say, and I must know
I'm in the artefacts, I'm in the afterglow
Freefalling from your secondhand memory
Missing out on everything that's right in front of me
Well the truth hurts, and my body too
I'm on the longest road, but calmly holding you
I'm calling god, he's the one who talks to me
Such a distance but on my network the calls are free

It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, rusted metal town
It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, my broken cinder town
It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, rusted metal town
It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, my broken cinder town
It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, rusted metal town
It's time to listen, so please come on down
I built this place, brick by brick, my broken cinder town
