(+) To Build a Home [The Cinematic Orchestra]

☆ To Build a Home [The Cinematic Orchestra]

There is a house
built out of stone
Wooden floors walls
and window sills
Tables and chairs
worn by all of the
dust
This is a place
where I don’t feel
alone
This is a place
where I feel at home
I built a home
for you
for me
Until it disappeared
from me
from you
And now it’s time to
leave and turn to dust
Out in the garden
where we planted
the seeds
There is a tree as
old as me
Branches were sewn
by the color of green
Ground had arose
and passed it’s knees
By the cracks of the
skin I climbed to
the top
I climbed the tree
to see the world
When the gusts came
around to blow
me down
I held on as tightly
as you held onto me
I held on as tightly
as you held onto me
I built a home
for you
for me
Until it disappeared
from me
from you
And now it’s time to
leave and turn to dust
