heard it in the song that no one knows
can I leave it here is that the way this goes
woven in a structure I can’t see
is this a part of you or is that a part of me

I’ll build it down backwards
if I could bring it back for you
I’ll build this life backwards
is this all that I can do?

tomorrow war is coming
this wound could use some numbing
stay with me here until the well runs dry
engage me in an optimistic world view
without being delusional
it’s a funeral

I’ll build it down backwards
if I could bring it back for you
I’ll build this life backwards
Is this all that I can do?

under where the rocks go
under where the water flows
under where the rocks go on their way

I’ll build it down backwards
if I could bring it back for you
I’ll build this life backwards
is this all that I can do?
all that I do
all that I can do
all that I do
I’m gonna leave it there
