Build A Pyramid
from Cry But Why by Tendon Levey
lyrics
Too much time
Take a little off
Spend some time
With the people who would love your company
Build a pyramid rock by rock
And die a distant, drooling mess on the top
They could taste me with their tongue
And not spit up
Fill my piercings, every one
Here I come
Here I come
Mortal
Here I come to the Mortal Fine Meal
Do you promise? (Mhm)
I have loathed and I've loved
I've come back to you
Spend some time in a place that truly loves
Its inhabitants
I have built my pyramid here
My voice was not meant for language
Or English
Take a little off
Spend some time
With the people who would love your company
Build a pyramid rock by rock
And die a distant, drooling mess on the top
They could taste me with their tongue
And not spit up
Fill my piercings, every one
Here I come
Here I come
Mortal
Here I come to the Mortal Fine Meal
Do you promise? (Mhm)
I have loathed and I've loved
I've come back to you
Spend some time in a place that truly loves
Its inhabitants
I have built my pyramid here
My voice was not meant for language
Or English
