Falsework

[Verse 1]
Calendar is open, the furniture’s dated
If I go out tonight, don’t wanna be persuaded
Running out of faces, it’s a failing structure
Go back to square one, and start with a whisper

[Pre-Chorus]
Saved until it’s remade
Received but no relay
It was nothing but a first draft
It didn’t have an ounce of contrast
Another short-term getaway
A still frame in a time lapse

[Chorus]
It served its purpose, moments of focus
I saw the future slip by unnoticed
It lives in the falsework and stays undercover
I hope my current state can hold the weight until it wants to be heard

[Verse 2]
Tip-toe over bridges that haven’t had upkeep
It might spell disaster to bet it all on black sheep
Every great idea has a long history
And every tower gets swallowed in the sea

[Pre-Chorus]
Saved until it’s remade
Received but no relay
Yeah, it was nothing but a first draft
It didn’t have an ounce of contrast
Another short-term getaway
A wonder frame in a time lapse

[Chorus]
It served its purpose, moments of focus
I saw the future slip by unnoticed
It lives in the falsework and stays undercover
I a hope my current state can hold the weight until it wants to be heard

[Bridge]
Nail on nail, steel on steel
Construct myself in piecemeal
Skeletal and faceless
Unfinished empty spaces

[Outro]
Saved until it’s remade
Received but no relay
It was nothing but a first draft
It didn’t have an ounce of contrast
Another short-term getaway
A still frame in a time lapse, oh
