lyrics

I’m a small skyscraper now
Foot in the grave, head in the clouds

And your spit was made of clay
And I shaped myself from what you used to say

And I don’t think that you know me best
You know how I like to dress

So I’ll pick the leaves
Off of autumn trees
So caught up in a pretty sway
But I know that I can’t make it stay
Anymore

I’m an empty skyscraper
Sorry is not a filler word

I’m so weary from instincts
When it’s easier to be told what to think

And you know I’m worried sick for you
Crunched underneath my shoe

But I’ll pick the leaves
Off of autumn trees
So caught up in a dying sway
But I know that I can’t make it stay
Anymore
