Red Bricks of Glory

Kiss the tremulous waves as they
Creep up the dirty shores
Revealing our past mistakes, I
Let my feet sink into brown sand

You're wrapped up in your skin
No one else has that look
Red shirt, sweep your hair back
Yeah you got a watch tan coming

In my pale fear I'm tempted baby
To glide out into the dark waters
In my pale fear I'm starting baby
To think you don't love me anymore

Bet you like climbing through the deep
Appalachian mountain night
Under the canopy, Utopian moonlight
Clothe me in these misinterpretations

You're wrapped up in your skin
No one else has that look
Red shirt, sweep your hair back
Yeah you got a watch tan coming

In my pale fear I'm tempted baby
To glide out into the dark waters
In my pale fear I'm starting baby
To think you don't love me anymore

I had to try so hard to get here 
These red bricks of glory
They come at a price, long story so
Damn it all if you still think I'm stupid

Do you romanticize city light spirals
From the wings of a bird
Behold a metropolis without a word
You missed a step in the waltz of fate

In my pale fear I'm tempted baby
To glide out into the dark waters
In my pale fear I'm starting baby
To think you don't love me anymore

In my pale fear I'm tempted baby
To glide out into the dark waters
In my pale fear I'm starting baby
To think you don't love me anymore...
