Lyrics
The city is clouds
The city represents a cloudy, unclear or confusing environment.
You make him the sun
The person being addressed is compared to the sun, someone who brings light, warmth, and positivity.
You wanted that poison
Desire for something harmful or toxic.
And bit the gun
Choosing a self-destructive path or action.
You know it don't say much
Actions or words of the person being referred to have minimal impact or significance.
The things that he did
The negative actions or behavior of someone.
You'll build him a tower
Building something significant or grand for the person despite their negative actions.
He'll burn you a bridge
That person will harm or destroy a connection despite the efforts made for them.
The nihilist tells you
Someone who believes in the absence of inherent meaning or truth.
That nothing is true
The belief that nothing holds absolute truth or value.
I said "i faked global warming
A statement indicating doing something extreme to get closer to someone, possibly sarcastic or hyperbolic.
Just to get close to you"
Using a significant issue or topic insincerely as a means to get closer to someone.
I read the book
Engaging with knowledge or information.
I drank the chains
Metaphorically consuming or experiencing something restrictive or confining.
I made you look
Attracting attention or causing someone to focus on something.
And I'm still here
The speaker remains despite challenges or difficulties.
I'm digging through the trash
Searching through discarded or disregarded things.
I can hear the train
Awareness of change or movement, possibly indicating a sense of passing time.
As it moves past
Observing change or events as they occur.
The chase is as trite
Describes the pursuit as clichéd or overused.
As the story I stage
Comparing the pursuit to a fabricated or scripted narrative.
A projection I write
Creating an image or idea for others to see or perceive.
In a book on a page
Creating a narrative or story that is projected onto reality.
But I won't do
Refusal to act as expected or prescribed.
What I ought to
Not adhering to what's considered proper or correct.
That vacant stare
A gaze or expression used to deceive or mislead.
I make to fool you
Using deception or a false appearance to trick someone.
I'm watching from
Observing from everyday places, potentially unnoticed.
Bodegas on the street
Not expressing opinions or thoughts openly.
And I'll say barely
Expressing thoughts or beliefs only to a limited extent.
Just how highly I can think
Indicating the speaker's capability for deep or profound thoughts.
The arsonist tells you
Someone who sets fires or causes destruction tells you about the intensification of feeling blue or sad.
That it gets more blue
Feeling increasingly melancholic or sorrowful.
The things you believe
Beliefs or convictions held within a confined or limited space, possibly a metaphor for a closed mind.
In a clay-bedroom snooze
Feeling sad or melancholic within a constrained or confined space, possibly a bedroom.
I read the book
Repetition of a previous action, possibly indicating a cycle of behavior or thought.
I drank the chains

And I'm still here

I'm always digging in trash

As it moves past
