City Walls

Your stare, a portrait of savoir faire

And I'll wait for them to catch their breath

And memorize your silhouette

Along the edges of your dress

Where you're surrounding shore-like oceans

Washing up in our devotion

Leave me out on your shore

Breathless and hoarse

I'll keep my promise

And wait for your call

These city walls

Are yours to dissolve

Away, if only fear makes you stay

The vultures survive on endings like these

Along the scratches of distress

Where all our tendencies are clearly

Marked to show who we are really

Leave me out on your shore

Breathless and hoarse

I'll keep my promise

And wait for your call

These city walls

Are yours to dissolve

Leave me out on your shore (Fading out here, lying here)

Breathless and hoarse (I'll wait for dawn)

I'll keep my promise (Only so much more strength in me)

And wait for your call (To keep me waiting alone)

These city walls are yours to dissolve
