歌詞

[Intro]
[Verse]
The hinge gives a groan
I’m standing here alone
Smell of damp and pine
Crossing a thin line
Mason jars on the wall
Waiting for the call
Nails rusted and bent
Money never spent
[Pre-Chorus]
Spiderwebs hold the light
Everything feels tight
Silence fills the space
I recognize this place
[Chorus]
Half-done chairs and tables
Worn out yellow labels
He ran out of time
Before he reached his prime
And I’m standing here
Facing every fear
With my own blueprints
Leaving dusty fingerprints
[Verse]
A level that’s off
A dry winter cough
Varnish in a tin
Let the light in
He kept every piece
Waiting for release
A joint that wouldn’t fit
He didn’t finish it
[Pre-Chorus]
The air is thick and damp
I turn on the lamp
Shadows start to lean
On what might have been
[Chorus]
Half-done chairs and tables
Worn out yellow labels
He ran out of time
Before he reached his prime
And I’m standing here
Facing every fear
With my own blueprints
Leaving dusty fingerprints
[Bridge]
The wood is still good
I’d fix it if I could
Maybe I’ll just start
With a heavy heart
Pick up the heavy tool
Don't be a fool
The grain is waiting now
I’ll figure out how
[Verse]
I’ve got my own pile
Living in denial
Books I haven't read
Words I haven't said
But the saw is sharp
Like a wooden harp
I’ll make the first cut
Keep the windows shut
[Chorus]
Half-done chairs and tables
Worn out yellow labels
He ran out of time
Before he reached his prime
And I’m standing here
Facing every fear
With my own blueprints
Leaving dusty fingerprints
[Outro]
