lyrics

I'd walk away if I could
See what I really look like
To someone outside of my head
I could tell by your tone
That it just feels alone
When the fence colors into rust

High on the fumes from the buildings
While you're gone, it matters where you are
And if you dig a hole deep enough
You might feel the currents drying up

I blame the host of my shell
He's a chamber of thorns
Keeping all of these things inside
All the moss I trampled
Trying to figure out
What's underneath my discomfort

High on the fumes from the buildings
While you're gone, it matters where you are
Tell my reflection she looks okay from afar
I'm only half apart

I know you don't want it this way
But something resides in me and keeps me on the line
I know the street lights can talk
Telling me to take the first bus out of town

High on the fumes from the buildings
While you're gone, it matters where you are
High on the fumes from the buildings
While you're gone
It matters where you are
