Il Testo della canzone di:
To Build A House – Cosima

While you were gone I washed all the windows
So I could get a better view of your return
While you were gone I changed all the bed sheets
So I could lie without the anger as I turned

I reset the clocks so I could forgive you for being late
But the moment I stop is the moment you tell me to have some faith

To build a house on quicksand
That's what you're asking me to do
To give you the heart you've broken
How can that feel alright to you?

In the end I let the windows get dirty
I couldn't stand to see your absence through the glass
And in the end I learnt to sleep with the light off
So tired from giving space to shadows of the past

I reset the clocks so I could forgive you for being late
But the moment I stop is the moment you tell me to have some faith

To build a house on quicksand
That's what you're asking me to do
To give you the heart you've broken
How can that feel alright to you?

Do I wait for you? (How can that feel alright?)
Does that comfort you? (How can that feel alright?)
Do I see it through? (How can that feel alright?)
Or do I walk on by? (How can that feel alright?)
Can I flick a switch? (How can that feel alright?)
And forget your name? (How can that feel alright)
Do I crawl right back? (How can that feel alright?)
When I know that there's no safety in your home

To build a house on quicksand
That's what you're asking me to do
To give you the heart that you've broken
How can that feel alright to you?

How can that feel alright?
How can that feel alright?
How can that feel alright to you?
