Caethua – Lament Lyrics
Artist: Caethua
Song: Lament
A drowning house
Lost sight in wind
Crossed the ice
Searched for its kin
A pickup truck broken down
A rusted belt
A weary town
A flood of ancient grime
The bricks become the soil in the night
When towers cave the vines become their veins
So here’s to you we’ll never be the same again
Into wool a weevil tries
To make its home
Warm and dry
But dry gets wet and freezes thin
Buildings burn
To never return again
A water nymph
Knows not of land
And so the soil
It seized our hands
At least we’re warm
If not on fire
From untold lust
Misplaced desire
Coffee made from sugar and burning bread
Could mask the taste but knows the feeling’s dead
We heave and leave behind what we know best
The sight of land the beating in our chests
Into stone we carve our names
In ancient rooms where women hang
From self-made ropes
Darkened by dust
If you can’t trust yourself
Then who can you trust?
And if you can’t trust me
Then who can I trust?
