Palace Arms Lyrics
There is no way to explain the dust that I lived yesterday
Every word I left unsaid in my head was no good
My dry mouth formed empty shapes
Wasting air and wasting breath
And in the dust I made a home of city trash and fashion sense
These electric suits of bachelorhood
They are soaked and spilled in alcohol
Their fallen forms I mocked and laughed
While in the dust I myself fell
Twisted shapes with frozen smiles
Twist alive by their own hands
But just as dark, my golden self
Down in the dust, just like the rest
Stranded in a good dream
While the palace arms are resting in an impossible return
To turn it all to gold?
Arms as cradles
Come together
Jesus, won't you save me for a love that's better?
And all this life is like a fading picture
Reflected in the eyes of a kid in summer
Every word I left unsaid in my head was no good
My dry mouth formed empty shapes
Wasting air and wasting breath
And in the dust I made a home of city trash and fashion sense
They are soaked and spilled in alcohol
Their fallen forms I mocked and laughed
While in the dust I myself fell
Twist alive by their own hands
But just as dark, my golden self
Down in the dust, just like the rest
While the palace arms are resting in an impossible return
To turn it all to gold?
Come together
Jesus, won't you save me for a love that's better?
And all this life is like a fading picture
Reflected in the eyes of a kid in summer
