The Wallflowers - I Am A Building lyrics

I'm here by my window I am waiting for your parade I will salute you From above the crowd As you make your way You won the battle baby You've won the war I admit it now I could not give any more My condition is your reward I am a building Here without doors The altitude is now, getting to me As they applaud you on the boulevard The whole valley looks like someone's body And all the people look like little scars This day is taking, forever I will never say Never say never again The flesh around me is only pretend Return to sender Every letter that is yours I am sure That I am a building Here without doors Fire blazing on the overpa** Cattle grazing in fields of dead gra** Last summer was earthquake weather By November this too should have pa**ed I am not moving I am landlocked I am looking through a thousand windows spread across A thousand floors There in a landfill where Eden was before But not anymore I am a building Here without doors Now did you, did you see me waving to you from above Things are looking clear now My eyes are wide enough to see the way a sniper does Behind the barrel of a good gun Oh uh-huh, oh uh-huh, oh uh-huh, oh uh-huh, oh uh-huh, oh uh-huh, oh uh-huh For worse or better I surrender It may not matter but I'm sadder than you'll ever know I am your inferno Here all in yellow With embers blowing north No sense in returning I'm not worried anymore I am a building That is here without doors Oh uh-huh I am a building That is here without doors
