about

((Re-released as solo project))

lyrics

Falling walls in the tape deck under the church
Back to your house in the suburbs near Berlin
I didn't take it personally at all
But rather I wish you would tear down that wall
He was a runner training years for his race
And he broke his ankle hours before
He saw all the others cross the finish line
And he laid his head in his hands on the sideline
It was a strange one for all of us
I missed you but I didn't
I found myself wishing to cross the borders
To feel even more weary
But the wind wasn't westerly then
Touch my cheek through the chain link
And I swear I'll tell your grandson about you
And maybe I mean that
I've never felt so alone in all my life
But in the middle of two million people
I hate what I'm becoming
/ / / I'm giving up on you, Mister Reagan
And I'm back in our basement again
I'm staring at the jelly jars lining the shelves
And I hate to admit it, but I've been
Tenderly crying myself to sleep
For my own sake.
