Lyrics and translation
Original
Wait, give me somethin' to say
Write it down on a paper, fold it up in a plane
And I know this was never my home
The towerin' skyscraper at the end of the road
The wind was blowin' off the tower
The saddest symphony
So I carry on, pick another song
Say my long goodbye, sing my lullaby
There is nothin' left, nothin' cynical
The road is paved with good intention
Talking Heads on my bed
I am hopin' that's how you remember me
Wait, give me somethin' to feel
Like the towerin' skyscraper, you feel so far away
My eyes, they fill the waterin' hole
One drop for the creature, one for the stone
The wind was blowin' off the tower
The saddest symphony
So I carry on, pick another song
Say my long goodbye, sing my lullaby
There is nothin' left, nothin' cynical
The road is paved with good intention
Talking Heads on my bed
I was hopin' that's how you remember me
