Everyone I love leaves me.
Nomadic lifestyles seem to please me
For a while, until they leave again.
Then I’m left alone
In the same old concrete pen.
—
Trying to build a foundation to stand upon.
In hopes that one day I’ll build high enough to see
Where you’ve gone.
—
I’d love to know how you’ve grown
While I’ve been on my own
In your old home.
What’s it like to be so free,
So far away from me?
Do you get lonely like I do?
—
Something about the transient nature of it
Has kissed my heart.
You’ve got what I like.
Only the tiniest of hints of a footprint
You left behind.
You’ll remember me next time.

A friend actually showed me them and I gotta say, didnt expect it to be as good as it was since he doesnt really like the music i like. Fantastic album, reminds me a mixture of dwellings and pulses. with its own style as well. Neo
