Cover art for The Build-Up lyrics by Kings of Convenience

Key is what this song means to "you" so keeping that in mind despite true meaning this song helped me think of a relationship that has run its course, like a train with its ups and downs always going around and around. And your ticket is your own rational mind not your emotional mind reminding you or telling you when to leave when to get off...... It is a really pretty song....
