I Am A Building lyrics

I`m here by my window
I am waiting for your parade
I will salute you
From above the crowd
As you make your way
You won the battle
You`ve won the war
I admit it now
I could not give any more
My condition is your reward
I am a building
Here without doors

The altitude is now
Getting to me
As they applaud you
On the boulevard
The whole valley looks like
Someone`s body
And all the people look like
Little scars
This day is taking
Forever
I will never say
Never say never again
The flesh around me
is only pretend
Return to sender
Every letter
That is yours
I am sure
That I am a building
Here without doors

Fire blazing
On the overpass
Cattle grazing
In fields of dead grass
Last summer was earthquake weather
By November
This too should have passed
I am not moving
I am landlocked
I am looking through
A thousand windows spread across
A thousand floors
There in a landfill
Where Eden was before
But not anymore
I am a building
Here without doors

Did you see me waving to you from above
Things are looking clear now
My eyes are wide enough to see the way a sniper does
Behind the barrel of a good gun

For worse or better
I surrender
It may not matter
But I`m sadder than you`ll ever know
I am your inferno
Here all in yellow
With embers blowing north
No sense in returning
I`m not worried anymore
I am a building
That is here without doors

I am a building
That is here without doors
