• The Build Up

I went from cities to touch the suburbs
I'm on the highway but I'm barefoot

I need a map but not the destination
I need a compass but not a conversation

I want to run far from this grey town
but you're on every street, marked on the ground

The momentum but not the pace
I won the prize but not the race

I want the jump but not the height
let me fall but catch me mid-flight
I swum with sharks and beasts of the sea
but I only went down for the company

but you won't come back home when I call
you left no sign, nothing at all
I'm sorry you won't fit inside my heart
I wanted love without the build up

I need the rules but not the regulations
I want the wisdom but not the information

I need the light but not the heat of the day
I need your hands to show me how to pray

I lost the plot underneath the fire
of all the dots and lines that took me higher

away from traffic and smiles that tire
I liked the lights but not the tangled wires

I need a pulse to feel alive
all the words just made me seem more quiet

this has all become far too loud
I like you more when you don't make a sound

but you won't come back home when I call
you left no sign, nothing at all
I'm sorry you won't fit inside my heart
won't you come like the rain and wash this away?
I wanted love without the build up
