Lyrics
The years pile up Like a city upon the sea Always growing Yet sinking every day My mistakes Have formed my foundation And now the waves Will make it come undone We’ll keep on building While our history is washed away (Beneath our feet) A new year precedes me An old one fades (Into the deep) This process of storing time in stacks Decaying stratums prone to collapse The years below become more difficult to grasp While those above start falling fast My mistakes Have formed my foundation And now the waves Will make it come undone We’ll head for higher ground Will our walls hold? We’ll never know (What lies below) We’ve already lost it So long ago (Submerged in the throes) Blame covets my name With the waves and the rain Get all the men to their positions! I will not let this building fall!
