City Walls

your stare a portrait of savoir faire and I'll wait for them to catch their breath and memorize your silhouette along the edges of your dress where your surroundings shore like oceans washing up in our devotion leave me out on your shore breathless and hoarse i'll keep my promise and wait for your call these city walls are your's to dissolve away if only fear makes you stay the vultures survive on endings like these along the scratches of distress where all our tendencies are clearly marked to show who we are really leave me out on your shore breathless and hoarse i'll keep my promise and wait for your call these city walls are your's to dissolve (fading out here on your shore lying here breathless and hoarse I'll wait until dawn only so much more strength in me to keep on waiting alone)
