Admiral Fallow - Building As Foreign Lyrics

How we ended up here with the start we had amazes me
From humble backyard brawl
And smiles to zero on the gages
Those tea leaves, a paper straw, a nylon fumble
A shaky jaw
Coz we wore boots and football strips
Some strange clothes for a first kiss
And I'll point out the signs
The ones that people that don't know
Don't care a jot for
Double hedges, a single shop
That square of grass that we wrestled on

I love to come back; it's making me tall
But when I get there there's nothing at all
Owned the foundations and brick by brick
You built a home for a family

All those coats on the stand
Like a cluster of people hand in hand
Hang at odds with the sods who inhabit them
We marked our heights by the door
And sat the read-through in that september storm
Sadder still to return each winter hoping to find
Something more than a building full of strangers
The living room soaked up more tears
Than it's had conversations

I love to come back it's making me tall
But when I get there there's nothing at all
Owned the foundations and brick by brick
You built a home for a family, oh

I love to come back it's making me tall
But when I get there there's nothing at all
Fly past the red bricks in double time
To find a building as foreign as if it never was mine

Heartbeat rises as I go down
Down to that beacon in the open ground
A wreckage
Heartbeat rises and no surprise
That we've got hunger in your open eyes
You'll be glad that you came

Heartbeat rises as I go down
Down to that beacon in the open ground
A wreckage
Heartbeat rises and no surprise
That we've got hunger in your open eyes
You'll be glad that you came

Heartbeat rises as I go down
Down to that beacon in the open ground
A wreckage
Heartbeat rises
