Observatory Mansions
[Verse 1]
Time scurries away from us like field mice
Out through the holes in our walls
Lost to the dark night

[Chorus]
Heal me up again

[Verse 2]
Everything I love gathers dust inside my chest
And all the love lost was the love that I kept
In coffins and boxes, a museum of the dead
It’s time I let go, let the darkness claim them

[Chorus]
Heal me up again
Heal me up again

[Verse 3]
Carved out of chalk, out of wax, out of wood
Saints, dolls, and angels, in pews they all stood
They said it’s time to give all that I’ve found
It’s time to give it back to the ground

[Outro]
And one day they will knock (Heal me up again)
The buildings down
Like vomit, our ghosts
Will all spill out
And one day they will knock (Heal me up again)
The buildings down
Like vomit, our ghosts
Will all spill out
