the thrill here is quicker than you'd think
the way some jet-lagged bar kept pouring the wine
from over their heads then sit back down again
four times is once too much for luck
and that's how many times the clock struck
i wandered home saying your name
the arches here were built 'cause they don't fall
the cathedrals to make you feel small
that you might find your small soul. but leave the preaching to the president. the crowd cheers. his eyes get wet. i'm full as it is
so don't feed me more. you'll be having my head
'cause i left all my doubts on the airplane. i didn't know
i didn't know i'm not in control
i'm not invincible. now maybe some things are better left unsaid
but if you wanted to test that out
i could've said. but there were nights in bars that i recall
your breath was courage laced with alcohol
make music with the chatter in here
