Cracks And Bricks Lyrics

There it goes

it's out of reach

but that does not mean

my hand's in my pocket

I'll lift it up

the wind is coming from the north

and the east and I need a jacket



So we walk down streets

like we are only visitors

We're lost on the concrete

The cracks and bricks like hieroglyphics

Are lost

We turned down the wrong street





It's been so long

since it all went wrong

that it seems like it might not have been so wrong

after all



but it's much too late

to think that I could change

this fate so I might as well just sit around

and watch the ramparts fall





Bought some maps

thought that I could find

a way to get back to where I came from

It did no good I can't go back

when I don't know where I am to begin with



There it went

I waved goodbye

but I do not think that

I'm gonna miss it

I zip up my jacket

Yes, it's gonna be a long walk home.



The formula's too difficult

just too many variables

And the numbers aren't the same

won't you tell me who to blame

I just cannot calculate

It keeps on saying error

Distance changes everything





It's been so long

since it all went wrong

that it seems like it might not have been so wrong

after all

I just cannot calculate

It keeps on saying error

Distance changes everything
