Cathedral

My lungs are a cathedral

Every other night I lie there void of course

Light me up like incense as I burn away

Make me feel like there's nothing left to say

Your smile is morning dew

I'm never looking at you quite like I want to

Build me up inside your head as I melt away

Make me feel like everything's okay

And you look at me like the golden leaves

Never meant a thing to you

And you smile at me like you want to be

A part of something new

Breathe me in, yeah, inhale me

I'm a mess and I guess you like it that way

Ooh, you let me know, baby

You let me know

Living like we're living for the day

And you tell me something I never thought I'd hear

And I whispered all my dreams in your ear

And I never thought I'd know but it's so clear

But it's gonna be a few more years

Oh it's gonna be a few more years

Yeah it's gonna be a few more years

Oh it's gonna be a few more years

Yeah it's gonna be a few more years

But I'll kneel at your altar in the pouring rain (Oh it's gonna be a few more years)

Until there's nothing left from whence it came (Yeah it's gonna be a few more years)

Until the shadowboxers lock the doors at night (Oh it's gonna be a few more years)

And I am left alone with everything you give me (Yeah it's gonna be a few more years)

And I'll yell along as I wash out the blood (Oh it's gonna be a few more years)

To some arrhythmic folk song born of hate and love (Yeah it's gonna be a few more years)

I'll keep romanticizing every thought I have (Oh it's gonna be a few more years)

Until there's nothing left, until there's nothing left (Yeah it's gonna be a few more years)
