A Thousand Cities Lyrics

What would I do if I could not fail
Fashioned crudely from an outside force
Chandeliers and a gauzy post
Moving forms of a passing ghost
Through the window of a month war
Summer breathing at my open door
Empty bottles and a rising stair
Spiral up into the endless air

I have painted exactly as I wanted
I have my cardboard dagger ready
I have walked on sidewalks cast with wings
Carry mirrors in my pockets

What would I dream if I could not sleep
Giving birth to a thousand cities
Beyond the gate in a garden path
Breathing fluid in the afternoon
What suffers now can never be put down
What never feels can never show concern
The predetermined are the unrestored
The overburdened and the underscored

I have painted exactly as I wanted
I have my cardboard dagger ready
I have walked on sidewalks cast with wings
Carry mirrors in my pockets

What would I do if I could not fail
Fashioned crudely from an outside force
What would I dream if I could not sleep
Giving birth to a thousand cities
